Answer:
Each shirt cost $12
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we have to interpret this question and turn each to an equation, letting shirts represent the letter s and ties represent the letter t.
6 shirts and 3 ties cost $79.50 would be interpreted to 6s+3t=79.5 ,and 3 shirts and 2 ties cost $41 would be interpreted to 3s+2t=41
Hence we have two equations, and we solve them simultaneously.
6s+3t=79.5 (Equation 1)
3s+2t=41 (Equation 2)
We can either use the substitution method or the elimination method but for the sake of this question, we use the Elimination method.
6s+3t=79.5 (Equation 1)
3s+2t=41 (Equation 2)
We multiply equation 1 by 2 and we multiply equation 2 by 3, I'm prefer to eliminate the
2(6s+3t=79.5)
12s+6t=159 Equation 3
3(3s+2t=41)
9s+6t=123 Equation 4
We subtract equation 4 from equation 3.
12s+6t=159
9s+6t=123
12s-9s=3s
6t-6t=0
159-123=36
We therefore have
3s=36
Divide both sides by 3
s=36/3
s=12
One shirt cost $12
The answer is (-1,0) or x=-1 and y=0 :)
Answer:
40
Step-by-step explanation:
(2/5)*n - 6 = 10 Add 6 to both sides
(2/5)*n - 6 + 6 = 10 + 6 Combine
(2/5)*n = 16 Multiply both sides by 5/2
(5/2)(2/5)n = 16*(5/2)
n = 80 / 2
n = 40
A i am sure i hope this helps
F(2) means that you are plugging in 2 for x, while f(x)=2 means that the equation equals 2 (y=2) at a certain x value.
