X songs
Y games

A) 8X + 3Y = 20.50
B) 4X + 5Y = 22.50

Multiplying equation B) by -2
B) -8X -10Y = -45.00  then adding this to
A) 8X + 3Y = 20.50  we get
-7Y = -24.50
Y = 3.50

anastassius [24]

Answer:

19$

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, we have to apply the rule of three. Also, we must have present that $15.20 is the 80% of the price, because the store offers a 20% of discount. So, if $15.20 is 80%, how much would be the 100%?

Therefore, the original price of the pants is $19.

Remember that we must identified the right proportion to apply the rule of three, in this case, that proportion is the 80% with 15.20, that's the reason or fraction center of the whole operation.
