So
if x is the number she spent on each sister and y is the number she spent on each nephew then
180=3x+2y

she wants to spend 15 dollars more on sisters than nephews
so
x=15+y
solve

we have
180=3x+2y and
x=15+y
subsitute 15+y for x

180=3(15+y)+2y
180=45+3y+2y
180=45+5y
minus 45 both sides
135=5y
divide both sides by 5
27=y

solve for x
x=15+y
x=15+27
x=42

she spent $42 on each sister

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In a square, each angle is 90.

11x - 32 = 90

Add 32 to both sides

11x = 90 +32

11x = 122

x = 122/11

x = 11\frac{1}{11}
