Answered by Henry
William: $X
Jan: $2X
Greg: $11.

x + 2x + 11 = 26
x = ?.


Answered by PsyDAG
G = 11

W = J/2

G + J + W = 26

11 + J + J/2 = 26

Solve for J.

Im confused on how to get x
Answered by Ms. Sue
x + 2x + 11 = 26
3x + 11 = 26

Subtract 11 from both sides.

Then divide both sides by 3.

im getting it now but just to make sure, would I subtract 11 from 11 and 26 or subtract 11 from 3 and 26
Answered by Ms. Sue
x + 2x + 11 = 26
3x + 11 = 26

3x = 15

x = 5

Answered by BOBEYJONES
The answer to Jan is 10$. Because Greg has 11$ so you need to make 26$ from 11$ So what I did is 11+10+5=26 Because Jan has twice as William so Jan has 10$ half of 10$ is 5$ So that means William has 5$

Answer: 10$
Answered by YeeterMcPeeterson
Jan: 10 Dollars

William: 5 Dollars

Greg: 11 Dollars

Answer: Jan has 10 Dollars to spend at the movies.
