ANSWER: 15 short sleeved shirts


Steps:

Use system of equations where x is short sleeved and y is long sleeved.

x+y=25
15x+20y=425

Make the coefficient of x the same in both equations.

Solve by elimination

15x+15y=375
-15x+20y=425
=-5y=-50

Divide both sides by -5 to isolate x
= y=10
This is the number of long sleeved shirts the manager bought.

Substitute y into the second equation to find the number of short sleeved shorts the manager bought.

15x+20(10)=425
= 15x+200=425
= 15x=225
= x=15

So the final answer is that the manager bought a total of 15 short sleeved shirts and 10 long sleeved shirts.

Please help me out..(:

Let's call the left side of this tirangle y and downside z.

3² + 6² = y²

y² = 45

y² + z² = (3 + x)²

45 + z² = 9 + 6x + x²

x² + 6² = z²

45 + x² + 6² = 9 + 6x + x²

45 + x² + 36 = 9 + 6x + x²

45 + 36 - 9 = 6x

72 = 6x

x = 12
