Answer:

$37.

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, let's set the price of each pair of shoe to be x.

Since each pair of shoes costs the same, and there are three pairs, we can set the original price to be 3x.

Now, to apply the shipping charge, all we have to do is add 7.50 to 3x, getting 3x + 7.5.

Next, to apply a 6% tax, we can multiple the whole expression by (100% + 6%), getting (3x + 7.5) \cdot 106%.

Since the whole bill foots to a total of $126.81, we can set the final equation to be:

(3x + 7.5) \cdot 106\% = $126.81

(3x + 7.5) \cdot \frac{106}{100} = $126.81

3x + 7.5 = $126.81 \cdot \frac {50}{53}

3x = $119.6 - 7.5

3x = 112.1

x \approx \$37

Hope this helped!

icang [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length be L.

Let the breath be B.

So, we are given that

length of a rectangle is 7 inches greater than three times its width .

So, according to the Question,

L = 7+ 3B.

So, we know that:-

Area = Length× Breadth.

So, it will be

B × (7 + 3B) = Area.
