The minimum amount Jorge will have in savings for them to have $163 together is $110.34.

j = 2x + 1

= 2(54.67) + 1

= 109.34 + 1

= $110.34

So,

j + x - 2 = 163

110.34 + 54.67 - 2 = 163

165.01 - 2 = 163.01

Approximately,

163

Therefore, the minimum amount Jorge will have in savings for them to have $163 together is $110.34
The minimum amount JORGE will have in saving for them to both have $163 together is $110.34
