Answer:

$275 a month

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent how much each friend is paying.

The amount Jane pays can be represented by 2x, since she is paying double than her friends.

Add together these terms and set them equal to 550. Then, solve for x:

x + x + 2x = 550

4x = 550

x = 137.5

So, each friend is paying $137.50. Double this to find how much Jane is paying:

137.5(2)

= 275

So, Jane is paying $275 a month
