A)
s = sweater
j = jeans
Equations:
4s + 2j = 140
2s + 3j = 150
B)
4s + 2j = 140
2s + 3j = 150
Multiply (-2) to the second equation
-2 (2s + 3j = 150)
-4s - 6j = -300
Now you have the equations:
4s + 2j = 140
-4s - 6j = -300
-----------------------------add
-4j = -160
j = 40
4s + 2(40) = 140
4s + 80 = 140
4s = 60
s = 15
The cost for a sweater is $15 and the cost for a jean is $40
We used the elimination method to solve the system of equations.
C)
Each pair of jean, she will buy 3 sweaters so total = 40 + 3(15) = $85
Total cost for 1 pair of jeans and 3 sweaters = $85
If she has $225 the
$225 / $85 = 2.64
2 jeans = 2 x 40 = $80
6 sweaters = 6 x $15 = $90
So She can only buy 2 jeans and 6 sweaters
Answer:
2x
Step-by-step explanation:
x and 2 are common to both 10x and 22x, so 10x + 22x = 2x(5 + 11)
The GCF is 2x.
Answer:
x=7/4
Step-by-step explanation:
13x-17x+7=0
-4x+7=0
-4x+7-7=0-7
-4x=-7
-4x/-4=-7/-4
x=7/4
Answer:
so whats the question?
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number be xy ,
xy = 10x + y. when reversed = yx = 10y + x
x = 2y ........(a)
10x + y + 10y + x = 66.........(b)
10(2y) + y + 10y + 2y = 66
20y + y + 10y + 2y = 66
33y = 66
y = 66/33
y = 2
x = 2y = 2*2 = 4
Recall the original number is xy = 42.
