Sagot :
Using a system of equations, it is found that Charlie won $270.
What is a system of equations?
A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.
In this problem, the variables are:
- Variable x: Amount earned by Linda.
- Variable y: Amount earned by Charlie.
Linda won $10 less than three times as much as Charlie, hence:
x = 3y - 10
Linda won $800, hence the amount won by Charlie is found as follows:
800 = 3y - 10
3y = 810
y = 810/3
y = 270
