Answer 1

Explanation:

Tam's initial amount of money = $74

Tam spends $5 on lunch, so she has $74 - $5 = $69 left.

Tam's parents double the money she has left, so she now has $69 x 2 = $138.

Tam adds all the money to the $148 in her savings account, so her total amount of money becomes $138 + $148 = $286.Expression that models this series of events: 148 + 2(74-5)For Sarah:

Sarah starts with $18.

Sarah doubles her money, so she now has $18 x 2 = $36.

Sarah subtracts $9 from her current amount, so she now has $36 - $9 = $27.

Sarah adds $50 to her current amount, so she now has $27 + $50 = $77.A possible series of events that led to Sarah's current amount of money: Starts with $18, doubles it to $36, subtracts $9, and then adds $50.
