Question 1199810
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Set up a system of simultaneous equations to solve the following problem:
(equations must be in standard form <s>and must not contain any fractions or decimals</s>)

1. Jenny and Lisa agreed to form a partnership. The partnership agreement requires that Lisa invest $2,751.00 more than three-fourths of what Jenny is to invest. If the partnership's capital is to be $51, 107.00, how much should Lisa invest?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<pre>
Jenny                j

Lisa                (3/4)j+2751

TOTAL               51107
</pre>


OR,



If you want to initially avoid fractions or decimals, then try like

<pre>
Jenny                4X

Lisa                3X+2751

TOTAL               51107
</pre>
and equation to use becomes  {{{4X+(3X+2751)=51107}}}.
