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

Which expression can be used to model the statement “On Wednesday, Nathaniel earned $10 less than he earned on Tuesday”?
valentinak56 [21]
<h3>Answer: n - 10 which is choice C</h3>

Let's use an example. If Nathaniel earned $15 on Tuesday, and earned $10 less on Wednesday, then 15-10 = 5 dollars is the amount he earns on Wednesday.

Now let's say he earned $27 on Tuesday, and still earned $10 less the next day, meaning that he earns 27-10 = 17

Whatever he earns on Tuesday, subtract off 10. That's the rule to follow for this problem.

(amount earned on Tuesday) - 10 = amount earned on Wednesday

If n reprsesent the placeholder for "amount earned on Tuesday", then we can rewrite that equation as

amount earned on Wednesday = n - 10

In short, whatever 'n' is, subtract 10 off it. In the examples above, I used n = 15 and n = 27.

note: the order of subtraction matters. The expression n-10 is not the same as 10 - n. If you subtract in the wrong order you may get a negative value (eg: 10 - 17 = -7), but he can't earn a negative amount of dollars.
