Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 28x + 15y = 131 and x + y = 7 where x is the number of Dress shirt and y is the number of T-shirt.
Step-by-step explanation:
We will represent the number of Dress shirt he bought by x and we will represent the number of T-shirt he bought by y.
We know that he spent 131 so the cost of each dress shirt plus the cost of each T-shirt has to equal 131. Also, he bought 7 total shirts so x plus y has to equal 7.
28x + 15y = 131
x + y = 7
Note: it says don't solve so I didn't solve but if you want to solve use these equations.
Answer:
$19.15
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation 1: 8.50+4.25+4.25= 17.00 (price of the popcorn and drinks)
Equation 2: 17.00/7.89= 2.15 (how to find how much the tax is)
Solve: 17.00+2.15=19.15 (add the tax to how much the popcorn and drinks were)
Answer:
yes this is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
and what you wanna talk about
Firstly, let's factorise each equation individually - to do this, find 2 numbers that when summed add to the value of the second term, and when multiplied give the value of the third term.
7 and 12 give us 4 and 3 (4+3=7, 4*3=12) -- 8 and 15 give us 5 and 3 (5+3=8, 5*3=15)
Now we can rewrite these equations as (y+4)(y+3) and (y+5)(y+3) respectively.
Putting this in a fraction: (y+4)(y+3)/(y+5)(y+3) -- We can clearly see that there is a y+3 on both sides of the fraction, and given there are no terms outside of the brackets being multiplied, we can directly cancel.
This gives us our final answer:
(y+4)/(y+5)
