5 = 0.05w
5 / 0.05 = w
100 = w........5 is 5% of 100
Let us say that:
x = cost of shorts
y = cost of slacks
z = cost of sports coat
From the given statements, we can create the following
equations:
eqtn 1: 3 x + y =
10.96
eqtn 2: 7 x + 2 y +
z = 30.40
eqtn 3: 4 x + z =
14.45
Rewrite eqtn 1 explicit to y:
y = 10.96 – 3 x -->
eqtn 4
Rewrite eqtn 3 explicit to z:
z = 14.45 – 4x -->
eqtn 5
Plug in the values of y (eqtn 4) and z (eqtn 5) to eqtn
2:
7 x + 2 (10.96 – 3 x) + 14.45 – 4 x = 30.40
7 x + 21.92 – 6 x + 14.45 – 4 x = 30.40
- 3 x + 36.37 = 30.40
- 3 x = - 5.97
x = 1.99
Eqtn 4:
y = 10.96 – 3 x
y = 10.96 – 3 (1.99)
y = 4.99
Eqtn 5:
z = 14.45 – 4x
z = 14.45 – 4 (1.99)
z = 6.49
Therefore each shirt cost $1.99, each slacks cost $4.99,
and each sports coat cost $6.49.

Answer:
10?
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
3x - 14
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter = 2(length+width)
= 2[(½X-7) + (x)]
= 2[½x + x - 7]
= 2[1.5x - 7]
= 3x - 14
Take into account that commutative property is present for addition and multiplication operations, then, you have:
3+5=5+3 TRUE
3·5 = 5·3 TRUE
The inverse addition of a number consists in adding the same numbers but with opposite signs, then, you have:
2 + (-2) = 0 TRUE
