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
$3.50 being the amount the item <em>t</em> costs and <em>t</em> being the number of this item.
It would be xfinity because your spending only $45 but on t mobile your spending $75
First, using elimination method for eq. 1 and 2 to eliminate one of the variables.
2x - y + 3z = 8
-2x + 3y - 2z = 10
------------------------------
2y + z = 18
z = 18 - 2y
Now eq. 1 and 3, but multiple eq.1 with 2.
2x + 4y - 2z = 8
-2x + 3y - 2z = 10
----------------------------
7y - 4z = 18
Now you have two new equations 7y -4z = 18 and z = 18 - 2y. Solve for y and z, using substitute method.
7y - 4z = 18
7y - 4(18 - 2y) = 18
7y - 72 + 8y = 18
15y = 18+72
y = 90/15
y = 6
Find z using one of the two new equations.
z = 18 - 2y
z = 18 - 2(6)
z = 18 - 12
z = 6
Now you got y and z, find x using any one of the main three equations.
x + 2y - z = 4
X + 2(6) - 6 = 4
x + 12 - 6 = 4
x = 4 - 6
x = -2
Solutions:
x = -2
y = 6
z = 6
