For this problem, just multiply the fractions by the amount of packages purchased.

6 * 1/4 = 1 1/2

8 * 1/2 = 4

7 * 3/4 = 5 1/4

Kristin spent $131 on shirts. Fancy shirts cost $28 and plain shirts cost $15. If she bought a total of 7 then how many of each

Tpy6a [65]

Hi there!!

First, Let plain shirts be x
Let fancy shirts be y
x + y = 7
15x + 28y = 131
Multiply first equation by 28 to eliminate y:
28x + 28y = 196
<span>15x + 28y = 131
</span>Subtracting the two equations:
13x = 65
<span>x = 5 </span>
Substituting x to get y:
x + y = 7
5 + y = 7
<span>y = 2 </span>
<span>Answer: 5 plain shirts and 2 fancy shirts
</span>
Hope this helps u!!
Have an amazing rest of ur day:)))

Find the midpoint of X (26,56) and Y (26,1)

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

(26, $\frac{57}{2}$ )

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given the coordinates (26, 56) and (26, 1)

We want to find the midpoint of these two points

The midpoint can be found using the formula $(\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2} , \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2})$ , where $(x_1, y_1)$ & $(x_2, y_2)$ are points

We have 2 points, which is what we need to find the midpoint, but let's label the values of the points to avoid confusion and mistakes when actually calculating

$x_1=26\\y_1=56\\x_2=26\\y_2=1$
