Answer: 550N + 650

=======================================================

Work Shown:

N = number of months

A = amount Charmaine saves = 155N+650

B = amount husband saves = 395N

T = total amount saved from both people combined

T = A+B

T = (155N+650)+(395N)

T = (155N+395N) + 650

T = 550N + 650

-----------

Example:

Let's say they saved for N = 10 months.

A = 155N+650 = 155*10+650 = 2200 dollars saved

B = 395N = 395*10 = 3950 dollars saved

A+B = 2200+3950 = 6150 dollars saved total

Or we could say

T = 550N+650 = 550*10+650 = 6150

as a slight shortcut.
