Shawn has $5 more than Rj and Riley has $10 less than Shawn. If there combined total is $414, how much does
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

Rj has 138 dollars, Shawn has 143 dollars, and Riley has 133 dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's make the amount of money Rj has x, so Shawn would have 5+x dollars, and Riley would have (5+x)-10 dollars. Altogether they have 414 dollars, so you can create an equation.

x+(5+x)+((5+x)-10)=414\\3x+0=414\\3x=414\\x=138

Now that we know that x=138, we can substitute x into each equation.

Rj has 138 dollars, Shawn has 143 dollars, and Riley has 133 dollars.
