Question 108228: I have a word problem that I need help on: Sarah has x amount of money. Bob has three times as much money as Sarah, less $14.62.
I came up with Bob=3x-$14.62 but I am stuck. This is the first time I have had to write equations and the teacher has left me on my own. Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Sarah has x amount of money. Bob has three times as much money as Sarah, less $14.62.
-----------
Sarah has x amount of money.
Bob has 3x-14.62.
----------
With the information you have posted that is about all
you can say. There is no "equation" information so you
cannot form an equation.
