Question

Rigo and Ian went shopping for soccer cleats and practice uniforms. Rigo spent $451, before taxes, and purchased three uniforms and one pair oof cleats. Ian spent $757, before taxes, and purchased five uniforms and two pairs of cleats.

Answer 1

Answer:

The price of uniform U= $145

price of each pair of cleats C= $16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let:

The Price of Each Uniform = U

The Price of Each Pair of Cleats = C

Rigo spent $451, before taxes, and purchased three uniforms and one pair of cleats.

→ Equation A

Ian spent $757, before taxes, and purchased five uniforms and two pair of cleats.

→ Equation B

Let's calculate → 2(Equation A) - (Equation B)

2(3U+C)-(5U+2C)= 2(451) -757

6U+2C-5U-2C= 145

U=$ 145

3U+C= 451

3(145)+C= 451

C= 451-435

C= $16
