Answer:

jordans monthly expenses = 900

jordan monthly income = 2700

Step-by-step explanation:

jordan monthly expenses = x

jordan monthly income = y

x + y = 3600

x = 1/2y - 450

solve for x,  1/2y - 450 = x

                           +450      + 450

                    1/2y = x + 450

                      y = 2x + 900

                      2x + 900 + x = 3600

                            - 900           -900

                       3x = 2700, 3x/3 = 2700/3

                                           x = 900

solve for y, 1/2y - 450 = 900

                          + 450   + 450

                   1/2y = 1350, multiply 1/2y and 1350 by 2,  y = 2700

                    y + x = 3600, 2700 + 900 = 3600
