Question

Together levy and Matt earn $4,680 per month levy earns $520 more per month then Matt earns how much does levy earns per month

Answer 1

L=M+520 solve for M

M=L-520,

L+M=4680, using M found above in this gives you:

L+L-520=4680 combine like terms on left side

2L-520=4680 add 520 to both sides

2L=5200 divide both sides by 2

L=$2600

Levy earns $2600 per month.

Answer 2

4680-520 = 4160

4160/2 =2080

matt earns 2080

levy earns 2080+520 = 2600

2600+2080 = 4680
