Hey, It looks like you're in Algebra and I'm here to give the best solution I can!
To write the equation, you are going to use the Standard Form. Standard Form is one way of solving this problem, and it is used to find the x,and y-intercepts of a problem. Standard Form can be written using the equation <span>ax+by=c
</span>In your problem, you will write the equation like so, with 'x' representing T-Shirts, and 'y' representing pants: <span> 8x+5y=220</span> Now, in order to find the x-intercept you need to substitute a 0 for the 'y' variable and solve the new equation, 8x=220. I'm sure you know you need to divide both sides by 8 which will give you the answer x=27.5.
Now, in order to find 'y' you would substitute a 0 for the 'x' variable which will give you an equation that should look like 5y=220. Then, divided both sides by 5 to get your y-intercept. y=44
Finally,you know that each T-Shirt (x) is $27.50, and each pair of pants(y)costs $44
The equation to find the Volume of something is length*Width*height therefore: (I'm confused as to what <span>10/1/2 means so) </span> •on the assumption that 10/1/2 means 10 and a half - 10.5 then it would be - 15*10.5*2.5 = 393.75m^3
<span>•on the assumption that 10/1/2 means 10 divided by 1/2 then it would be: </span>15*20*4 = 1200m^3
