Answer by ReadingBoosters(3246) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x = friday's game
y = saturday's game
x+y = 4100.00
x = y-980
Substitute x into the first equation
y-980 + y = 4100
2y - 980 = 4100
2y = 4100+980
2y=5080
y = $2,540 from Saturday's Game
x = 2540 - 980 = $1,560 for Friday's Game
Proof
2540+1560 = 4100
