Answer:

9) Charlotte collected $70 and Eric collected $30.

10) He used her cellphone for 80 minutes (approximated).

Step-by-step explanation:

9)

Charlotte = 3x - 20 (70)

Eric = x (30)

3x - 20 + x = 100 (because the half of the money was $50)

4x - 20 = 100

4x = 120

 x = 30

10) 18 + x(0.15) = 29.95

     x(0.15) = 11.95

     x = 79.6
