Maya and her husband are each starting a saving plan. Maya will initially set aside $650 and then add $135

every month to the savings. The amount A (in dollars) saved this way is given by the function A = 135N+ 650,
where N is the number of months she has been saving.
Her husband will not set an initial amount aside but will add $385 to the savings every month. The amount B
(in dollars) saved using this plan is given by the function B=385N.
Let T be total amount (in dollars) saved using both plans combined. Write an equation relating T to N.
Simplify your answer as much as possible.

To find an equation relating T, the total amount saved, to N, the number of months, we need to add up the savings from both plans for each month:

T = A + B

Substituting the given expressions for A and B, we get:

T = (135N + 650) + (385N)

Simplifying and combining like terms, we get:

T = 520N + 650

Therefore, the equation relating T to N is T = 520N + 650.
