Answer 1

Answer: Since concrete values are not provided I assume you are looking for a general formula. Walk step by step through what happens to the original amount.

Starts with pay, subtracts taxes, subtract rent, then split between him and wife.

(x                      -              t            -        155      )/                   2

or (x-t-155)/2 = the amount the each get. x== 65

Step-by-step explanation

Answer 2

Answer:-

$£ \frac{x - (t + 130)}{2}$

Explanation:-

Dan gets = £ x/week

tax = £t

rent = £130

Therefore, amount left = x - t - 130

= x - ( t + 130)

After sharing with his wife Dan gets :

$£ \frac{x - (t + 130)}{2}$
