Answer:

The cost of the shirts are $40 and $24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the cost of one shirt

y ----> the cost of the other shirt

we know that

x+y=64 ----> equation A

I assume that the cost x is greater than the cost y

so

x-y=16 ----> x=y+16 ---> equation B

solve the system by substitution

substitute equation B in equation A

y+16+y=64

solve for y

2y=64-16

2y=48

y=\$24

Find the value of x

x=y+16 ---->  x=24+16=\$40

therefore

The cost of the shirts are $40 and $24

x+y=64 and x-y=16 can be used to solve the system.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

x,y be the two shirts.

According to given statement;

Bob spent $64 on both shirts;

x+y=64    Eqn 1

The difference between the costs of the shirts was $16 means subtraction;

x-y=16      Eqn 2

x+y=64 and x-y=16 can be used to solve the system.

My name is Ann [436]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

  • m∠F = 116°

We have to find the value of m∠E.

Here, two sides are equal, thus it is an isosceles triangle. As the two sides are equal, so their angles must be equal. So, ∠E and ∠D will be equal. Let us assume the measures of both ∠E and ∠D as x.

→ Sum of all the interior angles of ∆ = 180°

→ ∠E + ∠D + ∠F = 180°

→ 116° + x + x = 180°

→ 2x = 180° – 116°

→ 2x = 64°

→ x = 64° ÷ 2

→<u> x = 32°</u>

Henceforth,

→ m∠E = x

→ m∠E = 32°

At a local restaurant, the amount of time that customers have to wait for their food is normally distributed with a mean of 36 m
Degger [83]

The probability that a randomly selected customer will have to wait between 32 minutes and 37 minutes is 59.81%

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Z score is given by:

z = (raw score - mean) / standard deviation

Given mean of 36 minutes and a standard deviation of 3 minutes.

For x = 32:

z = (32 - 36)/3 = -1.33

For x = 37:

z = (37 - 36)/3 = 0.33

P(-1.33 < z < 0.33) = P(z < 0.33) - P(z < -1.33) = 0.6179 - 0.0198 = 0.5981

The probability that a randomly selected customer will have to wait between 32 minutes and 37 minutes is 59.81%
