Pedro and John are going on a field trip with school. Together the boys have $62 to spend on the trip. If Pedro has $15 more than John, how much money does John have? Write a function rule (equation) that represents the situation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

we are told that their joint amount is $62

let John's amount be x

and Pedro's amount be y

so that y=x+15

Step two:

The equation to represent the situation is

62=x+(x+15)

open the bracket and solve for x we have

62=x+x+15

62=2x+15

2x=62-15

2x=47

divide both sides by 2

x=47/2

x=23.5

John has $23.5

step-by-step explanation:

if you want to solve percent error follow these steps.

1. subtract the accepted value from the experimental value.

2. take the absolute value of step 1.

3. divide that answer by the accepted value.

4. multiply that answer by 100 and add the % symbol to express the answer as a percentage.

if you want to solve percent of change just do this.

1. work out the difference (increase) between the two numbers you are comparing.

2. divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100. if your answer is a negative number then this is a percentage decrease.

hope this : )
