You go shopping at a local department store with your friend and cousin. You buy one pair of jeans, four pairs of shorts, and tw
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer: Cost per pair of jeans = $ 20

Cost per pair of shorts = $12

Cost per shirt = $8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x= cost per pair of jeans

y = Cost per pair of shorts

z= cost per shirt.

For you, total cost = x+4y+2z= 84

For your friend,  total cost = 2x+y+3z=76

For cousin, total cost = x+2y+z= 52

Required system:

x+4y+2z=84\ (i)\\ 2x+y+3z=76\ (ii)\\ x+2y+z=52\ (iii)

from (i), x=84-4y-2z    (*)

put this in (ii) and (iii) we get

2\left(84-4y-2z\right)+y+3z=76\\\Rightarrow\ -7y-z+168=76\ (iv)\\\\ 84-4y-2z+2y+z=52\\\Rightarrow\ -2y-z+84=52 \ (v)

from (iv), y=-\frac{z-92}{7}\ (vi)

\mathrm{Subsititute\:}y=-\frac{z-92}{7}\ \text{in}\ (v)

-2\left(-\frac{z-92}{7}\right)-z+84=52\\\\\Rightarrow\ -2\left(-\frac{z-92}{7}\right)-z=-32\\\\\Rightarrow\ -\frac{5z}{7}-\frac{184}{7}=-32\\\\\Rightarrow\ -5z-184=-224\\\\\Rightarrow\ -5z=-40\\\\\Rightarrow\ z=8

\mathrm{Subsititute\:}z=8\text{ in (vi)}

y=-\frac{8-92}{7}\\\\\Rightarrow \ y=12

\mathrm{Subsititute\:}z=8,\:y=12\text{ in (*)}

x=84-4\cdot \:12-2\cdot \:8\\\\\Rightarrow\ x= 20

Hence, x= 20, y= 12 , z=8

So, Cost per pair of jeans = $ 20

Cost per pair of shorts = $12

Cost per shirt = $8

So it cooks for 2 hrs and 20 minutes......and it has to be done by 1 pm.

so from 1 p.m. - 2 hrs = 11 a.m........- 20 minutes = 10:40 a.m

start cooking at 10:40 a.m. and it will be done by 1 p.m

The measures of ∠x and ∠y are equal. Which is the value of m?
morpeh [17]
There is no way to tell because there is no value for x and y. However just looking at the picture, I’m guessing m is around 45 degrees.
