So
if x is the number she spent on each sister and y is the number she spent on each nephew then
180=3x+2y
she wants to spend 15 dollars more on sisters than nephews
so
x=15+y
solve
we have
180=3x+2y and
x=15+y
subsitute 15+y for x
180=3(15+y)+2y
180=45+3y+2y
180=45+5y
minus 45 both sides
135=5y
divide both sides by 5
27=y
solve for x
x=15+y
x=15+27
x=42
she spent $42 on each sister

Answer: it took him 0.075 seconds lesser
Step-by-step explanation:
In his first heat, his time was 2.45 seconds greater than his friend's record time. In his second heat, his time was 2 3/8 seconds greater than his friend's record time. Converting 2 3/8 seconds to decimal, it becomes 2.375 seconds
Therefore, he was fastest in the second heat.
The difference between the time he used to run in the second heat than in the first heat is
2.45 - 2.375 = 0.075 seconds
The commutatice property for addition says a+b=b+a
If it was for subtraction, then it would be a-b=b-a
Take a=7 and b=5
7-5 is not equal to 5-7
2 is not equal to -2
So subtraction is not commutative for whole numbers.
