1. Sharon and Geordi both worked hard over the summer. Together they earned a total of $525. Geordi earned $75 more than Sharon.
(a) Write a system of equations for the situation. Use s for the amount Sharon earned and g for the amount Geordi earned.
(b) Graph the equations of the system on the graph provided

Answer 1

Answer:

s + g = 575

g = 75 + s

g = 325

s = 250

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Total amount earned by Sharon and Geordi = $525

Also, Geordi earned $75 more than Sharon

Let amount earned by Sharon = s

Amount earned by Geordi = g

Equations :

s + g = 575 - - - equation 1

g = 75 + s - - - equation 2

Put g = 75 + s in equation 1

s + 75 + s = 575

2s + 75 = 575

2s = 575 - 75

2s = 500

s = 250

g = 75 + s

g = 75 + 250

g = 325
