I think the answer is 3, -8/2 / 6/-3 .... then you flip and multiply to get to -8/2 x -3/6 which = 24/8 which is equal to 3
The only thing you should do is to divide $27.60 by 24 so the answer is $1.15 :)))
i hope this is helpful
have a nice day
Answer:
The price of the jacket was $31.43
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost of a jacket = x
Let the cost of a pair of pants = y
Such that,
x + y = $66.12.........Equation 1.
From the conditional statement,
x = y - $3.26..........Equation 2.
Solve both equations simultaneously, using the substitution method
From Equation 2;
x = y - 3.26
Substitute y - 3.26 for x in Equation 1.
x + y = 66.12, now becomes,
y - 3.26 + y = 66.12
collect like terms
y + y = 66.12 + 3.26
2y = 69.36
y= 69.36/2 = $34.69.
Put y = $34.69 in Equation 2. to obtain x
x = 34.69 - 3.26
x = $31.43
