Step-by-step explanation:
When adding rational numbers, if the denominator is the same you simply keep the denominator (bottom of fraction) as it is and apply the operation given to the numerator ( top of fraction )
So we have
==> remove parenthesis and apply signs
==> simplify numerator by combining like terms
and we are done!
Note:
like terms are terms with the same variable and exponent
An example of like terms are 6x^7 and 3x^7 as they have x as a variable and a power of 7
The like terms being combined here were (6x² and 4x²) and (5 and -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
1. making the equation:
shoes = x
shirts = y
175 = x + 3y
x = 4y
2. graph it (I'm using desmos)
the green line is for 175 = x + 3y and the purple one is for x = 4y
3. find the price
x = 4y
175 = 4y + 3y
175 = 7y
y = 175/7 = $25
price of the shirt = $25
x = 4y = 4*25 = $100
price of a pair of shoes = $100
