Step-by-step explanation:
given,
dollars saved by Sam = 6x + 8
dollars saved by Teresa = 14x + 32
total money = $220
a/q
money saved by,
sam + Teresa = $220
so,
6x + 8 + 14x + 32 = 220
20x + 40 = 220
20x = 220 - 40 = 180
x = 180/20 = 9
x = 9
now,
money saved by,
Sam = 6x + 8 = 6(9) + 8 = $62
Teresa = 14x + 32 = 14(9) + 32 = $158
therefore,
money individually saved by Sam is $62 and by Teresa $158.
