Question

Ronda Rollins gets a Social Security benefit of $350 per month. Her husband receives a benefit equal to 200 percent of Ronda's benefit. If they take an additional $400 per month from savings, what will their monthly income be?

Answer 1

$1450, sorry if i'm wrong

Answer 2

Their monthly income be $ 1450.

Explanation:

Given,

The security benefit of Ronda for a month = $ 350,

Also, her husband receives a benefit equal to 200 percent of Ronda's benefit,

So, the husband's benefit = 350 + 200% of 350

= 350 + 2 × 350

= 350 + 700

= $ 1050

Total benefits for a month = $ 1050,

Now, they take additional $ 400 per month,

So, their monthly income = monthly benefits + additional taken amount

= $ 1050 + $ 400

= $ 1450.
