You are buying 2 items so let's use two different variables to represent each:
p = number of tubes of paint
b = number of disposable brushes
cost = price per item × number of items
Equations from information given:
4p + 0.50b = 20 ← from the first 2 sentences
2p = b ← if there are twice as many brushes as paint tubes you need 2 times paint tubes to equal number of brushes
Solve the problem by using substitution... 1b equals 2p so replace b with that:
4p + 0.50(2p) = 20
4p + 1p = 20 ← 0.50 is half so half of 2p is 1p
5p = 20 ← combine like terms
p = 4 ← divide both sides of the equation by 5
Recall the equation 2p = b replace p with 4
2(4) = b
8 = b
ANSWER:
You purchased 4 tubes of paint and 8 disposable brushes.

Answer:
true duhh :))
Step-by-step explanation:
What you do is you find the common denominator between the two fractions given. the easiest is to just multiply them
6*8=48
and then multiply each numerator by the number it's denominator is multiplied by
1*8=8 and 5*6=30
and now you have your new fractions, add them together
8/48+30/48=38/48
this leaves 10/48 as the people who were wearing shorts, just simplify this and it's done
10/2 =5/24
48/2
