You got the equations correct, great job on that!

Let "s" be the variable that represents how many shirts were bought. Let "p" represent the total price/cost.

Equation for the store at Town Center mall:

p = 80 + 3.5s (80 is base cost, and cost increases 3.5 per shirt)

Equation for the store in Arlington:

p = 120 + 2.5s (120 is base cost, and cost increases 2.5 per shirt)

We want to find a point where the systems are equal; thus, we are solving for a system of linear equations, and we already have the equations we need.

p = 80 + 3.5s

p = 120 + 2.5s

We know that variable "p" is equal for both equations; thus, we can combine both equations into:

80 + 3.5s = 120 + 2.5s

Subtract both sides by 2.5s

80 + 3.5s - 2.5s = 120 + 2.5s - 2.5s

80 + s = 120

Subtract both sides by 80

s = 40

Thus, both equations are equal when 40 shirts are bought.

To find the cost, use any of the two equations (or both) to find the total cost, which should be equal.

p = 80 + 3.5(40) = 220

p = 120 + 2.5(40) = 220

Thus, the total price/cost at both stores is $220.

Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!

Answer:

the students that brought a lunch box is 28

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the students that brought a lunch box is shown below:

= Entire school students × students that carry a lunch box ÷ entering students

= 84 students × 8 ÷ 24 students

= 28 students

Hence, the students that brought a lunch box is 28

Please help me on this math question?
Whitepunk [10]
M=30° because the right angle and 60 degree angle equal 150 and 180 (degrees in a triangle) minus 150 is 30

n=50° because 40 plus the right angle is 130 then the difference between that and 180 is 50 then n is the vertex angle of the one you found

t=98° because answer n plus the other part to the straight angle including the 112° angle is 68 then the total angle turns to 118 then the final angle turns to 62 via earlier reasoning, then because of another straight angle t=98

use the earlier reasoning to fine the other answers of

p=71°
q=39°

use the angle degrees formula to get Pentagon's maximum angles then use earlier resources

the final answers u should be able to figure out from there and u will never learn unless you do some yourself
