Maybe 10 or something i dont know im only 10 so i cant really answer that i just need points
<span>(a) 5(3m+2) = 15m + 10
(b) 6(g+h) = 6g + 6h
(c) 4d+8 = 4(d + 2)
(d) 21p+35q = 7(3p + 5q)
(e) 18x+9y = 9(2x + y)</span>
Answer:
Each shirt costs 12 dollars.
Each pair of pants cost 40 dollars.
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Let x represent the shirts </u>
<u>Let y represent the pair of jeans</u>
10x + 4y = $280
12x + 5y = $344
<u>Use elimination method to eliminate y</u>
• Multiply the entire first equation by 5.
• Multiply the second entire equation by -4.
5(10x +4y = $280)
-4(12x + 5y = $344)
50x + 20y = 1400
-48x -20y = -1376
2x = 24
x = 12
Each shirt costs 12 dollars.
<u>Solve for how much each pair of jeans costs.</u>
10(12) + 4y = 280
120 + 4y = 280
4y = 160
y = 40
