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

stellarik [79]

During the French and Indian War, <u>the british were allies of the side of the British indians. </u>

The French and Indian War (1754–1763) was a confrontation between the British colonies and the colony of New France in North America. During the conflict, each side was supported by military forces from its parent country and by American Indian-native allies. The French were outnumbered (60,000 settlers against 2 million inhabitants in the British colonies), and had to rely more on the Indians.

It was a singular conflict. Even tough the European powers participated somehow, it is not regarded in America as a conflict associated to them at all.
