Question 241644: dominique has four times as much money in his savings account as in his checking account. the total amount is $2300. (let x be the amount of money in his checking account Answer by unlockmath(1688) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Hello,
Since the checking is represented by x, we can represent the saving with 4x and then write the equation as:
x + 4x = 2300 Combine like terms gives us:
5x=2300 Divide both sides by 5 will give us:
x=460
Now we know the checking account has $460 and the savings acct has $1840. Add those up and should come to $2300.
