1/2 x > 0.4x
where Robert's spending is greater than Rosa's spending.
Allowance of Rosa = Allowance of Robert
let x = allowance
Rosa : video games = 0.4(x) ; pizza = 2/5 (x)
Robert : video games = 1/2 (x) ; pizza = 0.25 (x)
let us assume that their allowance is 100 each week. so, x = 100
Rosa : video games = 0.40(100) = 40
pizza 2/5 (100) = 200/5 = 40
total spending: 40 + 40 = 80
Robert : video games = 1/2 (100) = 50
pizza 0.25 (100) = 25
total spending: 50 + 25 = 75
Spending on video games
Rosa = 40
Robert = 50
Robert spent more of his allowance on video games than Rosa.
1/2 x > 0.4x
Cross multiplying we get
x^2 = 2*7x
x^2 = 14x
x^2 - 14x = 0 is the answer
Should be equal to. sorry if its incorrect, but that's what i would go with.
