Question

Jill has 15 more dollars than Bella together they have 35 dollars write an equation to represent this situation define your variable

Answer 1

X = Bella’s money
X+15= Jill’s money

X + x+15 = 35

Answer 2

Jill has 25 dollars and Bella has 10 dollars

Explanation:

j = Jill

b = Bella

j + b = 35

j - 15 = b

Now solve.

j + j - 15 = 35

2j = 50

j = 25

25 - 15 = b

b = 10
