Move everybody to one side
minus 5x+2 both sides
x^2-5x-2=0
use quadratic formula where
if you have
ax^2+bx+c=0
x=

1x^2-5x-2=0
a=1
b=-5
c=-2

Answer:
$62.9 and $98.4
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost of tennis shoe be x
Since a jacket cost $35.50 more than a pair of tennis shoe,
Then cost of jacket would be
= $35.50 + x
Total cost of both items would be;
x + $35.50 + x = $161.30
2x = $161.30 - $35.50
2x = $125.8
x = $62.9
Therefore, cost of pair of tennis shoe is $62.9
Jacket cost would now be
= $35.5 + x
= $35.5 + $62.9
= $98.4
50 degrees because 50+50= 100 +80 = 180 and there is 180 degrees in a triangle
