$25 because 13 divided by 52 is $4 so $4 per sweater and $377 dived by 13 is $29 per sweater

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So, 13 sweaters cost $52, so 1 sweater costs $4. If he sells the 13 sweaters for $377, you will need to do 377 divided by 13, and that is 29. The last step you have to do is find the difference (subtraction) of 4 and 29. So, 29-4=25. Therefore, The profit the store made was $25 per sweater. Hoped that helped!!

Answer:

$6 = cost of small box

$8 = cost of large box

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s = cost of small box

l = cost of large box

(1) 12s + 3l = 96 (2) 6s + 6l = 84

Multiply by -2 <u> -24s - 6l = -192</u>

-18s = - 108

s = $6 = cost of small box

12(6) + 3l = 96

72 + 3l = 96

3l = 24

l = $8 = cost of large box

One number added to three times another number is 24. Five times the first number added to three times to other number is 36. Fi

Marrrta [24]

The numbers are 3 and 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first number be x and the second number be y

Then according to given statement

One number added to three times another number is 24

x+3y=24 Eqn 1

Five times the first number added to three times to other number is 36

5x+3y=36 Eqn 2

Subtracting Equation 1 from equation 2

$5x+3y-(x+3y)=36-24\\5x+3y-x-3y=12\\4x=12$

Dividing both sides by 4

$\frac{4x}{4}=\frac{12}{4}\\x=3$

Putting x=3 in equation 1

$3+3y=24\\3y=24-3\\3y=21$

Dividing both sides by 3

$\frac{3y}{3} = \frac{21}{3}\\y=7$

Hence,

The numbers are 3 and 7

In 2003, the population of an African country was about 22.5 million people, which is 2 million more than 5 times the population

Anton [14]

Answer:

Population in 1950 was 4,100,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation: 5x + 2,000,000 = 22,500,000

Subtract 2,000,000 from each side: 5x = 20,500,000

Divide each side by 5: x = 4,100,000

I hope this helps, please mark Brainliest, thank you!
