Is this solvable?

Underageb&

j=l
9(j-1140)=l-580
9(l-1140)=l-580
9l-10260=l-580
8l=10840
l=1355

I still don't get it?

j=l
er
9j=9680+l
j=(9680+l)/9
l=(9680+l)/9
9l=9680+l
8l=9680
l=1210

1210-1140=70
1210-580=630
70=630/9

did you draw those fucking boxes?

okay so bitches have the same amount of dough, right?
j=L
(I'll change the variable to uppercase so yo' dumb ass can see it.)

No, the image was sent to me like this. It's apparently homework for 9 to 10 year olds.

JESS'S TOTAL = LILL'S TOTAL

9 * (JESS'S TOTAL - 1140) = LILL'S TOTAL - 680

solve this equation for either jess's or lill's and you have the answer since they started with the same amount.

This is the correct answer.

are you mentally retarded the answer is 1210. learn some math retard

initial money amt = x
J = jessica's end total
(x -1140) = J
L = lillian's end total
(x-580) = L
J * 9 = L
(x-1140) * 9 = (x-580)
9x-10260 = x-580
9x - x = -580 + 10260
8x = 9680
x = 1210
so they both started off with 1210 pounds
its pretty basic algebra but how you solve that shit by drawing fucking boxes idk

Why are you helping this retard do his homework?

Lol wow. Thanks.

I know you guys are making fun, but honestly i wasn't nurtured well in my youth.
It is embarrassing, but i enjoy learning. Thank you all.

Did you lack oxygen or something?

Set it up algebraically. Don't try to rationalize it in your mind, use Algebra to organize and then solve.

No, just was handled badly. Literally that kid that the entire grade bullied. Teachers either did nothing to help, or made it worse. Parents also were bad at enforcing study.
I sat on my own in class, and didn't care about learning. I just wanted to be elsewhere, and begged to be moved to another school for five years.

I loved the escapism of reading instead, and funnily enough, did super well in English.

Not a good excuse, but it's the largest reason for my deficiency.

I wish I did. I had been trying to solve it in my head during work. I could "feel" the missing elements, but they were fleeting. Probably wouldn't have figured it out anyway lol.

J gave 1140
L gave 580
L had 9 x J in the end
==================
L - 580 = 9 ( J - 1140)
J = L = X (X being the one number for the exact equal amount of money they had in the beginning before squandering it on niggers)
X - 580 = 9 (X - 1140)
X - 580 = 9X - 10260
Switch positions of numbers and X's along while minding to switch the signs before the switching numbers
10260 - 580 = 9X - X
9680 = 8X
X = 9680 / 8
X = 1210
==================
Result Check:
L - 580 = 9 ( J - 1140)
1210 - 580 = 9 (1210 - 1140)
630 = 9 * 70
CORRECT

NOW FUCK OFF AND DO YOUR OWN HOMEWORK NEXT TIME YOU DUMB FUCKING NIGGER.

Try learning the material before solving the problems.

You'll breeze through it faster.
