Question

Sam and Kevin both worked hard over the summer. Together they earned a total of $425. Kevin earned $25 more than Sam.
(a) Write a system of equations for the situation. Use s for the amount Sam earned and k for the amount Kevin earned.
(b) Graph the equations in the system.
(c) Use your graph to estimate how much each person earned

pls hurry

Answer 1

Answer:

(a)

system of equations are

$s+k=425$

$k-s=25$

(b)

Graph is attached

(c)

Sam earned =$200

Kevin earned =$225

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume

's' for the amount Sam earned

'k' for the amount Kevin earned

(a)

Together they earned a total of $425

so, we get

$s+k=425$

Kevin earned $25 more than Sam

so, we get

$k=s+25$

so, system of equations are

$s+k=425$

$k-s=25$

(b)

now, we can draw graph

(c)

intersection point will be our solution

and we got intersection point as

(200, 225)

so,

s=200

k=225
