So first we start with division:

$750 divided by 2 equals $375.

Since one employee gets more than the other, we need to add more onto his/her salary.

So, next is addition.

$375 plus $200 equals $575.

So, one employee makes $375 while the other has an increase in his salary, so they get paid $575.

Hope I helped you!

So first, u want to set up a system of equations:

(x+y)÷2=750

x+200=y

we can use substitution by putting x+200 in place of y in the first equation.

(x+x+200)÷2=750

(2x+200)÷2=750
2x+200= 1500
2x=1300
x=650

Now that we have found x, we can substitute that value to find y.

x+200=y
650+200=y
y=850

so, one make $850 and the other makes $650.

True or False:
DIA [1.3K]
True. If you're just changing the form, yes. But remember when you change one side of an equation, you must change the other in the same way.
