please!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 3

If Kierans's savings are represented by K and Simon's savings are represented by S, then you can write two equations to represent their savings.
\[K=\frac{ 9 }{ 2 }S\]
\[S=K-28\]
Now you can use substitution to find out how much Kieran saved.\[K=\frac{ 9 }{ 2 }(K-28)\]
\[K=\frac{ 9 }{ 2 }K-126\]
\[\frac{ -7 }{ 2 }K=-126\]
So, with this, we can conclude that Kieran saved 36 dollars. If Simon saved 28 dollars less than Kieran, then he saved only 8 dollars. Together, they saved $44.
