Sam has $15 more dollars than Sarah, Casey has 2 times as much as Sam. The total they have all together is $95, how much money does each person have?

Answers:

Explanation:

x = amount of money Sarah has

x+15 = amount of money Sam has, since he has $15 more than her

2(x+15) = amount of money Casey has, since he has twice as much as Sam.

Let's add up those three expressions and set that sum equal to 95

Solve for x.

Sarah + Sam + Casey = 95

x+(x+15) + 2(x+15) = 95

x + x + 15 + 2x + 30 = 95

4x+45 = 95

4x = 95-45

4x = 50

x = 50/4

x = 12.50

This says that Sarah has $12.50

That must mean Sam has x+15 = 12.50+15 = 27.50 dollars

And Casey must have 2*27.50 = 55 dollars.

As a check,

Sarah+Sam+Casey = 12.50+27.50+55 = 95

So the answer is confirmed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Sarah have x dollars.

Then Sam has x + 15

Casey had 2(x + 15)

x + x + 15 + 2(x + 15) = 95               Remove the brackets.

2x + 15 + 2x + 30 = 95                    Collect like terms

4x + 45 = 95                                   Subtract 45 from both sides.

4x = 95 - 45

4x = 50                                           Divide by 4

x = 50/4

x = 12.5

Sarah has                          12.50

Sam has    16.67 + 16 =     27.50

Casey has                         55.00

Total                                    95

pentagon

step-by-step explanation:

the coordinates   a(5, -2), b(3,-1),c(-4,-4) d(-3,8) and e(-1,4) forms the vertices of the polygon when they are connected in order.

in order to classify that which polygon is it with the given coordinates, first count the number of vertices and then count the number of sides it can make with these vertices.

since, the given coordinates have five vertices, therefore, it will make five sides. moreover, pentagon is regular in nature therefore it will be convex.

now, a polygon with five sides is known as pentagon, therefore, the given polygon is the pentagon.

answer: the correct answer is -32
