Answer:

$300

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that L is the amount of money Luisa had in the beginning, and C is the amount of money Connor had in the beginning.

C + L = 360

C - 2/5 C = L + 2/5 C

Simplifying the second equation:

3/5 C = L + 2/5 C

1/5 C = L

Substituting into the first equation:

C + 1/5 C = 360

6/5 C = 360

C = 300

Connor originally had $300, and Luisa $60.  Connor gave Luisa $120, and they both had $180.

PLEASE HELP ME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!<br>LET ME KNOW IF ITS RIGHT

Okay. So the song lasts 221 seconds. 45 seconds have already beem done and 22 seconds is done in an hour. The equation would be set up like this:

45 + 22h = 221

Just by looking at the answer choices, A is already eliminated because it doesn't incorportate the 45 seconds. B does include the 45 seconds, but it subtracts, and in this case, we add time, not subtract. D is eliminated, because the h variable does not go with 45. The only equation that works is C and when you solve it, you get 8 hours. The answer is C.

Note: you solve the equation above by subtract 45 from both sides to get 176 = 22x, and dividing both sides by 22 to get x = 8.
