Question

PLEASE HELP ME THIS IS IMPORTANT!! Ronnie, Bobby, and mike are singers from the group New Edition. They

are raising money for studio time. Ronnie raised $30 more than Mike, and
Bobby raised $12 less than Ronnie. They collected $432 in total. How
much did Ronnie collect? And how much did mike collect? Also how much did mike collect?

Answer 1

Amount raised by Ronnie = $158

Amount raised by Bobby = $146

Amount raised by Mike = $128

Explanation:

Amount raised by Ronnie = r

Amount raised by Bobby = b

Amount raised by Mike = m

r=m+30

b=r-12

r+b+m=432

Put b in terms of m:

b=r-12

b=(m+30)-12

b=m+18

r+b+m=432

(m+30)+(m+18)+m=432

3m+48=432

3m=384

m=128

b=m+18

b=128+18

b=146

r=m+30

r=128+30

r=158
