<h2>Answer:</h2>

The cost of a sweatshirt is $24.

The cost of a t shirt is $8

The cost of shorts is $12

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

Let w represent the price of one sweatshirt

Let t represent the price of one Tshirt

Let h represent the price of one pair of shorts

The price of a sweatshirt at a local shop is twice the price of a pair of shorts.

w=2h    ...(1)

The price of a T-shirt at the shop is $4 less than the price of a pair of shorts.

t=h-4    ....(2)

Brad purchased 3 sweatshirts, 2 pairs of shorts, and 5 T-shirts for a total cost of $136.

3w+2h+5t=136    .....(3)

Substituting the values of w and t in (3)

3(2h)+2h+5(h-4)=136

=> 6h+2h+5h-20=136

=> 13h=136+20

=> 13h=156

h = 12

t = h-4

t=12-4=8

t = 8

w = 2h

w=2\times12=24

w = 24

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So, the cost of a sweatshirt is $24.

The cost of a t shirt is $8

The cost of shorts is $12

Answer:

The cost of sweatshirt is 12$

Step-by-step explanation:

so we are going to make 3 equations and solve it using the substation method

First- We know the price of the shirt is two times more so w = 2h

Second we know that the the tee shirt is 4 dollars less then the pair of shoes so t = h − 4

Third we take the combined of Brads purchases 3w + 5t + 2h =136

w = 2h

t = h − 4

3w + 2h + 5t = 136

So to solve we are going to to the sub method

3(2h) + 2h + 5(h-4) = 136 - just re written, now we get rid of the ( )

6h + 2h + 5h -20 = 136 - Now we need to move the -20 and add it too 136

6h + 2h + 5h = 156 - Now sum up the H's

13h = 156 - Now divide 13 by 156

h= 12

so the Cost of a sweatshirt is 12 dollars

Which statement is true of the function f(x) = -3x? Select three options.
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

The function is decreasing.

The domain is all real numbers.

The range is all real numbers.

I can't read your other options.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=-3x is a linear function.

I know this because it is in the form of f(x)=mx+b.

The degree is also 1. If the degree is 1 then the polynomial is linear.

Anyways it is in the slope-intercept form of f(x)=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Comparing the following two:

f(x)=mx+b

f(x)=-3x

Tells us the slope is -3 while the y-intercept is 0.

If the slope is negative, the function decreases.

If the slope is positive, the function increases.

If the slope is 0, then it neither increases nor decreases.

So since -3 well is negative, then the function decreases.

Since linear functions are continuous and ours is either decreasing/increase (decreasing), then the function hits every x and y value so the domain and range is all real numbers.
