Let the price of 1 shirt be represented by = s

A pair of pants costs twice as much as a shirt, then the cost of pants is = 2s

The total cost of 1 pair of pants and 1 shirt is $18 , means : s+2s=18

Solving this we get,                            

3s=18

s=6

So, the price of 1 shirt is $6 and price of 1 pair of pants is = 2s = 2*6 = $12.

Answer:

s + 2s = 18, will be the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 's' represents the cost of 1 shirt.

As per given statement in the question "a pair of pants costs twice as much as a shirt".

The cost of a pair of pants = $2s

The total cost of 1 pair of pants and 1 shirt = $18

so the equation to find the cost of 1 shirt will be

s + 2s = 18

3s = 18

\frac{3s}{3}=\frac{18}{3}

s = $6

What is x equal to in the problem 10+3(x+2)=36? Please show your work.
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

x = 6 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

10+3(x+2)=36

10+3x+6=36           Solve inside the parenthesis.

16+3x=36               Combine like terms.

-16       -16                Subtract 16 from both sides.

3x/3=20/3                Divide both sides by 3.

x=6 2/3                     The answer is x= 6 2/3, or 6.66666666666667
