In order to solve this, you have to plug in all of the costs of the gifts and add them, which in all equals $36. since jim only has 1/4 of the money he needs to buy the gifts, you need to divide 36 by 4. this gives you 9, so now you know he has 9 dollars.
and to find out how much more money he needs, you can subtract 9 from 36 which represents a fourth of the required money. the answer is 27, that's how much jim needs in order to buy his gifts.

Answer: G) -2</h3>
=======================================================
Explanation:
I'm assuming you meant to say (a+y)^2 + 2y
Replace each copy of 'a' with 5. Replace each copy of 'y' with -3. Use PEMDAS to simplify.
(a+y)^2 + 2y
(5 + (-3))^2 + 2(-3)
(5-3)^2 + 2(-3)
(2)^2 + 2(-3)
4 + 2(-3)
4 - 6
-2
So (a+y)^2 + 2y = -2 when a = 5 and y = -3.
Y = 3000x + 28000
y = 2800x + 30000
3000x + 28000 = 2800x + 30000
200x = 2000
x = 10
The salaries will be the same after 10 years.
