We will solve this by suing simultaneous equations,
⇒ 5s + 3j = 87
4s + 2j = 64
Multiply the first equation with 4 and the second one with 5, this is to get one of the values equal so that we can cancel them out,
⇒ (5s + 3j = 87) × 4
(4s + 2j = 64) × 5
∴ ⇒ 20s + 12j = 348
20s + 10j = 320
Subtract both the equations. This is how your result (after subtraction) should look like,
⇒ 2j = 28
∴ ⇒ j = $14
Now replace the value of 'j' in one of the original equations,
⇒ 4s + 2(14) = 64
⇒ 4s + 28 = 64
⇒ 4s = 64 - 28
⇒ 4s = 36
∴ ⇒ s = $9
Therefore, one pair of jeans cost $14 and a shirt costs $9
Hope you understood! Feel free to ask me if you didn't understand a step.
lo siento de antemano! Necesito los puntos para hacer una publicación sobre mi amigo desaparecido. Ella desapareció y no puedo encontrarla. Ella se ha ido desde Halloween gracias por su comprensión. 8 9 028 los números son para covienes que estoy cosiendo el quistoion. Lo siento, nuevamente.
<h3><u>The unknown number is equal to 4.</u></h3>
8x - 27 = 5
Add 27 to both sides.
8x = 32
Divide both sides by 8
x = 4
Ok well...
1200 times .25 is 300 so subtract 1200-300= 900 is the decreased number :)
Hope it helps! :)
I cannot answer this question because I don't know what liquid or item the can is holding or the formula
