Answer:

17 adult shirts were sold

Step-by-step explanation:

x = adult shirts and y = children shirts

x + y = 40......adult shirts + child shirts = 40 total shirts

17x + 13y = 588...$ 17 for each adult shirt (x) + $ 13 for each child shirt (y) = $ 588

these are the equations we will be using.

now lets rearrange the first one....x + y = 40......x = 40 - y.....now sub 40 - y in for x back into the second equation

17x + 13y = 588

17(40 - y) + 13y = 588

680 - 17y + 13y = 588

-17y + 13y = 588 - 680

-4y = - 92

y = -92/-4

y = 23 <=== so there were 23 child shirts sold

x + y = 40

x + 23 = 40

x = 40 - 23

x = 17 <===== and 17 adult shirts sold

check...

17x + 13y = 588

17(17) + 13(23) = 588

289 + 299 = 588

588 = 588 (correct)

The ex- suffix often correlates a word to mean "outside", while the in- suffix often correlates a word to mean "inside". An exterior angle of a polygon would mean "an angle outside of a polygon". An interior angle of a polygon would mean "an angle inside of a polygon". Three exterior angles of this polygon would be angle B, angle D, and angle A. This is because these angles are outside of the polygon due to the extending lines from the shape. Two interior angles of this polygon would be angle 6 and angle 8 (explanation was given when I first began answering this question). Angle 9 would be exterior since it is outside of the polygon. Two exterior angles of the polygon that are congruent are angle D and angle 9, since they are both 90 degrees (right angles).

Determine if the two functions f and g are inverses of each other
Margarita [4]

Answer:

Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(g(x))

f(\frac{x-12}{9})  

( I will have to replace all x's in 9x+12 with (\frac{x-12}{9})

9(\frac{x-12}{9})+12

(x-12)+12

x-12+12

x+(-12+12)

x+0

x

So the answer is yes.
