h = Williams hours
h + 2.5 = Jose's hours because he worked 2.5 hours more than William, so you add 2.5 to William's hours (which is represented by h) to get Jose's hours

then you add them together..

MANUFACTURING A shoe manufacturer spends $2.50 to make sandals and $4 to make running shoes. During a typical month, they spend

jonny [76]

Answer:

200 pairs of sandals

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the sandals with x and the running shoes with y.

In a typical month:

$Total = 2500$

In April

$Total = 3000$

Required

The number of sandals in a typical month

In a typical month:

If 1 sandal costs 2.50, then x costs 2.50x

If 1 running shoe costs 4, then y costs 4y

The total is:

$2.50x + 4y = 2500$

In April:

If 1 sandal costs 2.50, then 2x costs 5x ---- we used 2x because the pairs is doubled

If 1 running shoe costs 4, then y costs 4y

The total is:

$5x + 4y = 3000$

The equations are:

$5x + 4y = 3000$

$2.50x + 4y = 2500$

Subtract

$5x - 2.50x + 4y - 4y = 3000 - 2500$

$2.50x = 500$

$x = \frac{500}{2.50}$

$x = 200$
