The minimum amount Jorge will have in savings for them to have $163 together is $110.34

  • Jeorge:

2x + 1

  • Ellen:

x - 2

Jeorge + Ellen = 163

2x + 1 + x - 2 = 163

2x + x + 1 - 2 = 163

3x - 1 = 163

  • Add 1 to both sides

3x = 163 + 1

3x = 164

  • divide both sides by 3

x = 164 / 3

x = 54.67

Check:

j = 2x + 1

= 2(54.67) + 1

= 109.34 + 1

= $110.34

So,

j + x - 2 = 163

110.34 + 54.67 - 2 = 163

165.01 - 2 = 163.01

Approximately,

163

Therefore, the minimum amount Jorge will have in savings for them to have $163 together is $110.34

What is one of the primary reasons for the collapse of socialist/communist economic systems, particularly in the soviet union?
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]
A. Government failure  to distribute resources effectively.

Although the foundation of a socialist/ communist nation is that of distribution of wealth equitably, governments, like the Soviet Union, failed  to ensure just that. Due to lack of poor decisions and corruption, a large gap started to form between the rich (bourgeoise)  and  the poor (proletariat). Thus, a mass struggle ensued, which in turn resulted in the collapse of the system.
