Answer:
One pair of socks is $370.
Step-by-step explanation:
Sean bought <em>three pairs</em> of the same socks and a shoe polish for $1450. If the
polish cost $340, how much is the cost of <em>one pair</em> of socks.
6x - 340 = 1450
6x = 1450 -340
6x = 1110
2x = 1110 / 3
2x = 370
(x+3y) (x-3y) = x^2 9y^2
(x-y) (x+3y) = x^2+2xy-3y^2
(xy+9y+2) (xy-3) = x^2 y^2 +9xy^2-xy-27y-6
(x^2+3xy-2) ( xy+3) = x^3 y+3x^2 y^2 +7xy-6
(2xy+x+y) (3xy^2-y) = 6x^2 y^3 +3x^2 y^2 +xy^2-2xy^2-xy-y^2
(xy+3x+2) ( xy-9) = x^2 y^2 +3x^2 y -7xy-27x-18
