To answer we let x be the amount of money that Sam invested during the first year.
Below are the expressions translated from the given word forms for the amount invested.
Sam:
2nd year : amount = 5x/2 - 2000
3rd year : amount = x/5 + 1000
The sum of money invested by Sam is:
x + (5x/2 - 2000) + (x/5 + 1000)
Similarly, we derive the expressions that we use for the amount that Sally invested.
Sally
1st year : amount = 3x/2 - 1000
2nd year : amount = 2x - 1500
3rd year : amount = x/4 + 1400
The total amount that Sally invested is,
total = (3x/2 - 1000) + (2x - 1500) + (x/4 + 1400)
Equating the two equations:
(x) + (5x/2 - 2000) + (x/5 + 1000) = (3x/2 - 1000) + (2x - 1500) + (x/4 + 1400)
Solving for x,
x = 2000
For Sally's investment in the third year:
amount = x/4 + 1400 = (2000/4 + 1400) = 1900
ANSWERS:
Sam's first year = $2000
Sally's third year = $1900

Answer:
−(7p+6)−2(−1−2p) = - 3p - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
−(7p+6)−2(−1−2p) = -7p - 6 + 2 + 4p
= (-7p + 4p) + (2 - 6)
= -(7p - 4p) - (6 - 2)
= - 3p - 4
Answer:
The slope of the line that passes through the points (2, 3) and (8, 6) is 
.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope of two points, divide the difference between the y values by the difference between x values, you can remember this by the mnenomic "rise over run". In this case, the difference between y and x values would be 6 - 3 = 3 and 8 - 2 = 6 respectively. This means the slope between the two points (2, 3) and (8, 6) is 
or .
