So we need to find the x+y =??

From St 1, we have y=x+5 or Total savings ie. x+y= 2x+5----> Clearly not sufficient as x can have any value. So A and D ruled out
From St 2, we have 6 weeks of Ann savings equals Beth's savings of 5 weeks so we have 6x= 5y. So St 2 is not sufficient so B ruled out

Combining we get that 6x= 5y and y= x+5....
On Solving we get 6x/5= x+5 or 6x= 5x+25 or x=25 and y =30.

so x+y = $55.
