Price of boots is represented as x, price of tennis shoes is represented as y.
x-y=44.38
x+y=196.12
Isolate x. (Or y, if you wanted to)
x=y+44.38
x=196.12-y
Set them equal to each other.
y+44.38=196.12-y
Solve for y. Then plug it in to either of the two original equations to find x.
x=120.24
y=75.86
Note: This is assuming that the boots are more expensive than the tennis shoes. If the tennis shoes are more expensive than the boots, then the prices would be switched. I didn't find this clear in your question.
Answer:
The answer is 4m
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of books that Millicent has. So the number of books that Harold has is x/2. And the number of book that Harold is bringing to the new home is (x/2)/3 = x/6.
The home has enough room for another half of Millicent's books, which is x/2. So the total books capacity of the new home is

Since x is also the number of books in Millicent's old library capacity, we can conclude that the fraction of Millicent's old library capacity to the new home's library capacity is 2/3, or 2 thirds
Answer:
6
+ 5x³ - 9x² + 2x
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
(3x² - 2x)(2x² + 3x - 1)
Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is
= 3x²(2x² + 3x - 1) - 2x(2x² + 3x - 1) ← distribute both parenthesis
= 6
+ 9x³ - 3x² - 4x³ - 6x² + 2x ← collect like terms
= 6
+ 5x³ - 9x² + 2x
