Question

Baxter, Romero, and Hirsch pooled their funds to purchase a computer software store. They spent a total of $580,000. Baxter spent 3 times as much as Hirsch but $13,000 less than Romero. How much did each of them spend?

Answer 1

Romeo spent $256,000, Baxter spent $243000 and Hirsch spent $81000 as determined by mathematical equation.

What is a mathematical equation?

• A fine statement called an equation is made up of two expressions joined together by the equal sign.
• Individualities and tentative equations are the two different types of equations.
• Only certain combinations of the variables' values make a tentative equation true.
• A good expression that uses the equals symbol is an equation.

Suppose Romero spent x.

x-13000 = Baxter

Hirsch's expenses equal (x - 13000)3

Making a mathematical equation out of it,

Romero, Baxter, and Hirsch equal 580000

x + x - 13000 + [(x - 13000)3] = 580000

2x + [(x - 13000)3] = 580000 + 13000

6x + x - 13000 = 593000 x 3

7x = 1779000 + 13000

x = 17920007

X = 256000

Thus,

According to a mathematical equation,

Hirsch spent $81,000,

Romeo spent $256,000,

Baxter spent $243,000.
