<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

What is the perimeter of rhombus WXYZ?<br><br> units<br> 12 units<br> units<br> 20 units
timama [110]
Let O be the intersection of the vertical line through ZX, and the horizontal line through YW. 

The coordinates of this point are clearly (5, 2) as it is at the same x-coordinate as X and Z, and y-coordinate as Y and W.


So, YZO is a right triangle. By the Pythagorean theorem:

ZY= \sqrt{{YO}^2+{OZ}^2}= \sqrt{2^2+3^2}= \sqrt{4+9}= \sqrt{13}.


Since all sides of a rhombus are equal, then the perimeter is :

                               P(XWZY)=4 \sqrt{13} units.


Answer: third choice.

What is the mean median mode range of 3,14,7,12,4,9,16,4,8,20
gogolik [260]

First, order the number set from least to greatest:

3 , 4 , 4 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 12 , 14 , 16 , 20

Mean: You find the mean by combining all the terms, and dividing by the amount of the terms there are in the number set:

(3 + 4 + 4 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 12 + 14 + 16 + 20)/10

(97)/10 = 9.7

Mean: 9.7

Median: You find the median by first ordering the number set from least to greatest, and finding the middle number. Note that if there is a even number of numbers in the set, you find the mean with the two given median digits:

8 & 9 are the median numbers:

(8 + 9)/2 = (17)/2 = 8.5

Median: 8.5

Mode: The mode is the number(s) in the set that shows up the most:

Mode: 4 (shows up one more time than all other numbers)

Range:  The range can be found by subtracting the least number from the greatest number in the number set:

Range: 20 - 3 = 17

Range: 17
