Write an equation for each statement
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Jose has $15 more than Alicia.
\n" ); document.write( "j = a + 15
\n" ); document.write( " Alicia has $10 less than Alondra.
\n" ); document.write( "a = A - 10
\n" ); document.write( "or
\n" ); document.write( "A = a + 10
\n" ); document.write( " Together they have $100.
\n" ); document.write( "j + a + A = 100
\n" ); document.write( "Replace j And A
\n" ); document.write( "(a+15) + a + (a+10) = 100
\n" ); document.write( "3a + 25 = 100
\n" ); document.write( "3a = 75
\n" ); document.write( "a = 75/3
\n" ); document.write( "a = $25 has Alicia
\n" ); document.write( "then
\n" ); document.write( "j = 25 + 15 = $40 has Jose
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "A = 25 + 10 = $35 has Alondra
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "See if that adds up
\n" ); document.write( "40 + 25 + 35 = 100\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
