Hello,
\n" ); document.write( "Since the checking is represented by x, we can represent the saving with 4x and then write the equation as:
\n" ); document.write( "x + 4x = 2300 Combine like terms gives us:
\n" ); document.write( "5x=2300 Divide both sides by 5 will give us:
\n" ); document.write( "x=460
\n" ); document.write( "Now we know the checking account has $460 and the savings acct has $1840. Add those up and should come to $2300.
