You buy 3 shirts and 1 pair of pants for $32. Your friend buys 2 shirts and 3 pairs of pants for $40. How much did each item cost?

First let’s define a shirt as X and pants as Y!

In the first scenario, the equation will be 3X + Y =$32

In the second scenario, the equation will be 2X + 3Y = $40  

Now because we have two different variables (X & Y) let’s solve for one of them (Ex: Y) to simplify the equations!

3X + Y= $32—> subtract 3X on both sides of the equation  

-3X.        - 3X

Net result: Y= 32- 3X

Now we can insert this into the second equation 2X + 3Y = $40 in order to solve for X variable  

2X + 3(32-3X) = $40

2X + 96 - 9X = $40 —> simplify the equation  

-7X + 96 = $40 —> substrate 96 from both sides  

-7X = -56 —> divide both sides by -7  

X= 8  

Now reinsert 8= X into 3X + Y = $32

3(8) + Y = $32

24+ Y = $32 —> substract 24 from both sides

y = 8

ANSWER: X= 8, Y= 8

Distance from a point to a line (Coordinate Geometry)

Method 1: When the line is vertical or horizontal , the distance from a point to a vertical or horizontal line can be found by the simple difference of coordinates . Finding the distance from a point to a line is easy if the line is vertical or horizontal. We simply find the difference between the appropriate coordinates of the point and the line. In fact, for vertical lines, this is the only way to do it, since the other methods require the slope of the line, which is undefined for evrtical lines.

Method 2: (If you're looking for an equation) Distance = | Px - Lx |

Hope this helps!

Factor out completly: 6x^2y − 3xy − 24xy^2 + 12y^2
Crank
<h3>I'll teach you how to factor 6x^2y − 3xy − 24xy^2 + 12y^2</h3>

---------------------------------------------------------------------

6x^2y − 3xy − 24xy^2 + 12y^2

Apply exponent rule:

6x^2y-3xy-24xyy+12yy

Rewrite 12 as 4*3

Rewrite -24 as 8*3

Rewrite 6 as 2*3

2*3x^2y-3xy+8*3xyy+4*3yy

Factor out common term 3y:

3y(2x^2-x-8xy+4y)

Factor 2x^2-x-8xy+4y:

3y(2x-1)(x-4y)

Your Answer Is 3y(2x-1)(x-4y)
