Question 1053703: A baseball team has home games on Wednesday and Sunday. The two teams together earn $5151.00 for the team. Wednesday's game generates $1199.00 less than Sunday's game. How much money was taken in at each game? How much money did Wednesday's game generate? How much money did Sunday's game generate? Answer by jorel555(1290) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let n be the money taken in by the team on Wednesday. Then Sunday's take is n+1199. So:
n+n+1199=5151
2n=3952
n=1976
Sunday's game is 1976+1199, or $3175. ☺☺☺☺
