Pythagorean Theorem
75^2+40^2=x^2
5625+1600=7225
Square root of 7225 is 85
So hypotenuse is 85 yd
take x =initial deposit amount. then make equation:
x+75.5+55.25-25.15-18.65 = 210.85
simplify:
x+86.95 = 210.85
x=210.85 - 86.95
x=123.90
so Initial deposit amount is $123.90
check: 210.85+18.65+25.15-55.25-75.5 = 123.9
123.9 = 123.9
x = 1.50 + y
*40x + 40y = 940
40 (1.50 + y) + 40y = 940
60 + 40y +40y = 940
60 + 80y = 940
80y = 940 - 60
80y = 880
y = 880/80
y = 11
*x - y = 1.50
x - 11 = 1.50
x = 1.50 + 11
x = 12.5
x=DAVID
Y=PETER
2000 x 6 / 100 = 120
120 x $1.2 = $144
$144/ 3 = $48
answer
$48 for each person
