They are about 27 percent that are not seniors
The woman wouuld save 1/10 or 1 tenth of her salary
One scarf=s
One hat=h
2s+h=13
s+2h=14
h=13-2s
(plug that into the other equation)
s+2(13-2s)=14
s+26-4s=14
26-3s=14
-3s=-12
s=4
One hat=$5
One scarf=$4
5+4=9
Price of one hat AND one scarf is $9
108-271+215-_____=-103
Im going to combine the first thee numbers and replace the blank with a variable, lets use x.
52 - x=-103
now I am going to subtract 52 on both sides to get the variable alone
-x=-155
Im going to multiply both sides to eliminate the negitive in the variable
x=155
If you want to check just plug 155 into the blank
108-271+215-155=-103
-163+215-155=-103
52-155=-103
-103=-103
so after checking work the blank is equal to 155.
