-2.50 -2.50 subtract both sides by -2.50
8x=1
8. 8 divide both sides by 8
x=1/8

Answer : 11^9
Explanation: when you’re dividing powers, you substract them, so in this case it is 6-2 and you’ll get 11^4. Then you need to multiply, when you’re multiplying you are adding powers. In this case you add 4 and 5 and get 11^9
Let’s call the amount of pants x and the amount of shirts y.
12y + 21x = 240
y + x = 14 which could be changed to x= 14-y
now you plug it into the first equation
12y + 21 (14 - y) = 240
12y + 294 - 21y = 240
add the similar terms
12y - 21y = 240 - 294
-9y = -54
cancels the minus signs on both sides
9y = 54
y= 6
now you plug y = 6 into the equation x = 14-y
x = 14 - 6
x = 8
