Debra has 5x + 4 saved in the bank. Quinton has 4x + 3 saved in the bank.
Debra and Quinton want to have at least $286 saved all together, what would be
the value of x?

Respuesta :

Answer:

  x = 31

Step-by-step explanation:

For the sum of the saved amounts to be 286, we must have ...

  (5x +4) +(4x +3) = 286

  9x = 279 . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 7

  x = 31 . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 9

The value of x would be 31.
