Answer:
Let S = price of sweater
Let P = price of pants
S + P = 89.47 because that was the total spent
S = P - 8.53 because the sweater is 8.53 less than pants
Substitute P-8.53 in place of S in the
1st equation and solve for P
P - 8.53 + P = 89.47
2P - 8.53 = 89.47 add 8.53 to both sides
2P = 89.47 + 8.53
2P = 98.00 divide both sides by 2
P = 98.00/2
P = $49.00
S = P - 8.53
S = 49.00-8.53
S = $40.47
A sweater costs $40.47 and the pants cost $49.00

Let the number of watts =w ‘no more than’ means less than or equal to, thus we will use that sign. The inequality can be written as: w<75
Call the production cost 'C', the revenue 'R' and the number of CDs 'n':
C=2000+5n
R=10n
By definition Profit P = R-C, therefore P=10n-2000+5n = 5n-2000.
125 > 50 + 4.25*p
subtract 50 from each side
75 =>4.25p
divide by 4.25
p>17.64
