The coefficient of these two number are -24 and 7. :)
Answer:
Shirt: $45 , Tie: $12
Step-by-step explanation:
Let s be the price of the shirt
Let t be the price of the tie
Given the information from the question,
s + t = 57 - Equation 1
s - t = 33 - Equation 2
We will use substitution method to find the prices.
We will rearranging equation 1.
s = 57 - t
We will substitute s into equation 2.
57 - t - t = 33
57 - 2t = 33
-2t = 33 - 57
-2t = -24
t = -24 / -2
= 12
We now substitute t into Equation 1.
s + 12 = 57
s = 57 - 12
= 45
From here we know, the shirt costs $45 and the tie costs $12
The 24 pack is the best deal
3 1/15 * 12 =
46/15 * 12 =
552/15 =
36 12/15.....although this does reduce to 36 4/5...answer is B
