Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

shirt = x, pants: y

Katie equation: 3x + 2y = 80, Erin equation: 3x + 4y = 116  

3x + 2y = 80

3x = 80 - 2y

x = 80/3 - 2y/3

3(80/3 - 2y/3) + 4y = 116

80 - 2y + 4y = 116

80 + 2y + 116

2y = 36

y = 18, pants cost $18

3x + 4(18) = 116

3x + 72 = 116

3x = 44

x = 14.66... (66 is repeating), shirts cost $14.66

check work:

Katie: 3(14.66) + 2(18) = 79.98 which is roughly 80.

6 + ( 2 − 3 ( 4 ) ) + 1 /( 5 ) ( 2 ) − 4
tankabanditka [31]

6 + (2 - 3 (4) )+1 / (5) (2) - 4 = -1 /2

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

6 + (2 - 3 (4) )+1 / (5) (2) - 4

Using the BODMAS rule, we can simplify the expression in the following way, like, we have to do the operation inside the brackets first, then division, multiplication, addition and then subtraction.

= 6 + (2 - 3 (4) )+1 / (5) (2) - 4  [operation inside the brackets]

= 6 + (2 - 12) )+1 / (5) (2) - 4  

= 6 + (-10) )+1 / (10) - 4

=   6 + 1 -10 / (10) - 4

=  7 - 10/ 6

= -3 / 6

= -1/2

Solve each equation by completing the square <br> 6) m² + 16m – 8 = 0
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

m = - 8 ± 6\sqrt{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

m² + 16m - 8 = 0 ( add 8 to both sides )

m² + 16m = 8

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the m- term )² to both sides

m² + 2(8)m + 64 = 8 + 64

(m + 8)² = 72 ( take the square root of both sides )

m + 8 = ± \sqrt{72} = ± \sqrt{36(2)} = ± 6\sqrt{2}

Subtract 8 from both sides

m = - 8 ± 6\sqrt{2}
