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.

Answer:
A = 80 S =70
Step-by-step explanation:
#Adults tickets = A
#Students tickets = S
A + S = 150
5A (means the price is $5 times the number of Adult tickets) equals the total amount for all of the Adult tickets altogether
3S (means the price is $3 times the number of Student tickets) equals the total amount for all of the students tickets altogether
5A + 3S = 610 (Means adding the total of all the student tickets plus adult tickets will equal $610 for all tickets sold)
Using both equations now, you can use substitution or elimination to solve for one of the variables. Then you can use the variable to substitute to solve the remaining one.
A + S = 150
5A + 3S = 610
Substitution:
A = 150 - S (Rearrange the first equation by moving S to the other side)
Substitute into the other equation
5 (150 - S) + 3S = 610
750 - 5S + 3S = 610 Combine like terms : -2S = -140
Solve for S = 70
Substitute into A + S = 150 A + (70) = 150
A = 80
So basically he is paying 11.75% of the 3250 dollars in interest. So it’s 3250+(11.75% of 3250)
