You buy 3 shirts and 1 pair of pants for $32. Your friend buys 2 shirts and 3 pairs of pants for $40. How much did each item cost?
First let’s define a shirt as X and pants as Y!
In the first scenario, the equation will be 3X + Y =$32
In the second scenario, the equation will be 2X + 3Y = $40
Now because we have two different variables (X & Y) let’s solve for one of them (Ex: Y) to simplify the equations!
3X + Y= $32—> subtract 3X on both sides of the equation
-3X. - 3X
Net result: Y= 32- 3X
Now we can insert this into the second equation 2X + 3Y = $40 in order to solve for X variable
2X + 3(32-3X) = $40
2X + 96 - 9X = $40 —> simplify the equation
-7X + 96 = $40 —> substrate 96 from both sides
-7X = -56 —> divide both sides by -7
X= 8
Now reinsert 8= X into 3X + Y = $32
3(8) + Y = $32
24+ Y = $32 —> substract 24 from both sides
y = 8
ANSWER: X= 8, Y= 8

If a chef bought 9 apples and each pie takes 2 apples then all we have to do is divide.
9 / 2 = 4.5
4 full pies can be made with 9 apples.
4 x 2 = 8 (apples were used to make 4 pies.)
9 - 8 = 1 (apple remaining)
If one pie needs 2 apples, subtract.
2 - 1 = 1 (pies the chef needs to make the last one)
-------------------------------------------------
Answer: The last pie would need 1 more apple.

Answer:
Probability is the likelihood or chance of an event occurring. Probability = the number of ways of achieving success. the total number of possible outcomes.
Step-by-step explanation:
Think of it as a chance or the percent of an event happening. Such as it raining on a sunny day would be 15%-0% probability.
