Answer:

James invested $160,000

Step-by-step explanation:

- In total, they needed $480,000 to start the business

- 1:2 ratio means one of them payed double the amount than the other

so the expression would be,

2x + x = 480,000

Let x represent how much they each need to invest

the expression can be simplified to,

3x = 480,000

now you need to get x alone, this would be done be dividing both sides by 3

\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{480,000}{3}\\x = 160,000

James invest $160,000

Michael invest $160,000 x 2 = $320,000

and if you add them together, you get the total amount

$320,000 + $160,000 = $480,000
