Answer:
Cost of Hats = $15
Cost of Scarves = $8
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
Cost of Hats = x
Cost of Scarves = y
5x + 3y = 99 (1)
3x + 5y = 85 (2)
Multiply (1) by 5 and (2) by 3
25x + 15y = 495
9x + 15y = 255
Subtract
25x - 9x = 495 - 255
16x = 240
Divide both sides by 16
x = 240 / 16
= 15
x = $15
Substitute x = 15 into
5x + 3y = 99
5(15) + 3y = 99
75 + 3y = 99
3y = 99 - 75
3y = 24
y = 24/3
= 8
y = 8
Cost of Hats = $15
Cost of Scarves = $8
Answer:
the answer to this question is 11
Answer:
10 & 40
Step-by-step explanation:
x+10=20------------------10-20=10
y-8=32--------------------32+8=40
In a - 3 = 15, the value of a HAS to be 18.
In a - 3 is greater than or equal to 15, the value of a is any value that is 18 or higher.
