OpenStudy (3mar):

then? How many Sherri deposited with respect to x?

OpenStudy (3mar):

I think it is not hard, superkay.

OpenStudy (3mar):

Every deposit of Sherri is greater that her sister's with the amount of 10$ So Sherri's deposit is (x+10) and their number is 5, so Sherri's deposits are 5(x+10)

OpenStudy (3mar):

OpenStudy (superkay):

yes

OpenStudy (superkay):

50

OpenStudy (superkay):

x=50
