Answer:

shirt =20

hat =12

Step-by-step explanation:

cost of shirts * number of shirts + cost of hats * number of hats = total cost

Let the cost of shirts = s and the cost of hats =h

s * 8 +  h * 5 = 220

s * 5 + h * 1 = 112

We will use elimination to solve this system of equations.  Multiply the second equation by -5.

-5(s * 5 + h * 1) =-5( 112)

-25s -5h = -560


Now we need to add it to the first equation

 8s + 5h = 220

-25s - 5h = -560

----------------------------

-17s          = -340

Divide each side by -17

-17s/-17 = -340/-17

s = 20

The cost of a shirt is $20

Now we need to find the cost of a hat.

5s+h = 112

Substitute s=20 into the above equation.

5(20)+h = 112

100+h = 112

Subtract 100 from each side.

100-100+h = 112-100

h= 12

The cost of a hat is 12

Let T-shirt be "x"

Let Hat be "y"

8x + 5y = 220 \\ 5x + (1)y = 112

Now in order to solve the two equations you need to multiply the second equation by -5. You will get:


- 25x - 5y =  - 560

Now add the two equations:


(8x - 25x) + (5y - 5y) =  220 - 560 \\  -  17x =  - 340 \\ x = 20

Now substitute the value of x in first equation in order to get the value of y.


8(20) + 5y = 220 \\ 160 + 5y = 220 \\ 5y = 220 - 160 \\ 5y = 60 \\ y = 12

So the value of one T-Shirt is $20

and the value of one Hat is $12

28 please help I don't understand what it's asking
mixer [17]
Isn't it a function considered a function if it has no intersecting lines? Maybe you should graph it and see if it has intersecting lines or not. If it doesn't the it's a function if
it does then it's not. I think..?

$35,000 at 4% for 5 years   calculate the compound interest
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

$42582.852

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate this you would first need to convert 4% into a decimal.

To do this you would divide 4 by 100, this gives you 0.04. Then you would add 0.04 to 1, This gives you 1.04. Then you would multiply 35000 by 1.04 to the power of how many years, in this case it is 5.

1) Convert 4% into a decimal.

4/100=0.04

2)Add 1 to 0.04.

1+0.04=1.04

3) Multiply 35000 by 1.04 to  the power of 5.

35000*1.04^{5} =42582.852

4) The compound interest is $42582.852

Elena-2011 [213]
There are 3.5 square meters in 350 square centimeters. A way to help remember this is that the prefix "centi" means one hundred, and there are a hundred centimeters in one meter. Hope this helps:)
