A baseball team has home games on friday and sunday. the two games together earned $3085.50 for the team. fridays game generates $290.50 less than sundays game. how much money was taken in at each game?

F + s = 3085.50

f = s - 290.50

(s - 290.50) + s = 3085.50

2s - 290.50 = 3085.50

2s = 3085.50 + 290.50

2s = 3376

s = 3376/2

s = 1688 < = = sunday's game

f = s - 290.5

f = 1688 - 290.5

f = 1397.50 < = = friday's game
