Shopping at Savers Mart, Lisa buys her children 4 shirts and 3 pairs of pants for $85.50. She returns the next day and buys 3 shirts and 5 pairs of pants for $115.00. What is the price of each shirt and each pair of pants.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

price for one shirt

=

$

7.50

price for one pair of pants

=

$

18.50

Explanation:

Start by letting variables

x

and

y

represent the pieces of clothing from the problem.

Let

x

be the price of one shirt.

Let

y

be the price of one pair of pants.

Equation

1

:

4

x

+

3

y

=

85.50

Equation

2

:

3

x

+

5

y

=

115.00

You can solve for each variable by using elimination or substitution. However, in this case, we will use use elimination. First, we will solve for

y

, the price of each pair of pants.

To isolate for

y

, we must eliminate

x

. We can do this by making the two equations have the same

x

values. First, we find the LCM of

4

and

3

, which is

12

. Next, multiply equation

1

by

3

and equation

2

by

4

so that

4

x

and

3

x

becomes

12

x

in both equations.

Equation

1

:

4

x

+

3

y

=

85.50

3

(

4

x

+

3

y

)

=

3

(

85.50

)

12

x

+

9

y

=

256.50

Equation

2

:

3

x

+

5

y

=

115.00

4

(

3

x

+

5

y

)

=

4

(

115.00

)

12

x

+

20

y

=

460.00

Now that we have two equations with

12

x

, we can subtract equation

2

from equation

1

to solve for

y

.

12

x

+

9

y

=

256.50

12

x

+

20

y

=

460.00

11

y

=

203.50

y

=

18.50

price for one pair of pants

Now that we know that a pair of pants is

$

18.50

, we can substitute this value into either equation

1

or

2

to find price for one shirt. In this case, we will choose equation

1

.

4

x

+

3

y

=

85.50

4

x

+

3

(

18.50

)

=

85.50

4

x

+

55.5

=

85.50

4

x

=

28

x

=

7.50

price for one shirt

, the price for one shirt is

$

7.50

and the price for one pair of pants is

$

18.50

.

The temperature drops to a rate of five degrees per hour. Be d the number of degrees that lowers the temperature. Be the number of hours you spend. What is the dependent variable?

Answers

Answer:

d, the number of degrees that the temperature was lowered by

Step-by-step explanation:

The dependent variable in this scenario would be d, the number of degrees that the temperature was lowered by. This is because the value of this variable depends on the actual amount of hours that have passed by. Therefore, depending on the number of hours, the value of d could be completely different. The variable h for the number of hours does not depend on any other variable in the equation and has its own value, but since d depends on h then it would be the dependent variable in this scenario.

Sierra has plotted two vertices of a rectangle at (3,2) and (8,2). What is the length of the sides of the rectangle

Answers

Answer:

5units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the two vertices of a rectangle at (3,2) and (8,2). We are to calculate the distance between the two points.

Using the formula

D = √(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²

D = √(2-2)²+(8-3)²

D = √0+5²

D =  √25

D = 5

Hence the length of the side of the rectangle is 5units

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello.

The Distributive Property states that

a(b+c)=ab+ac

Where

a, b, and c can be either constants or variables

we distribute a by multiplying it times b and c, and simplify if necessary.

In this case, we should distribute 12:

12(a-5)

12 times a and 12 times (-5):

12a-60

And we're done!

1. A line has a slope of 6 and includes the
points (-1, q) and (0, -7). What is the
value of q?

Answers

Answer:

q = - 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula and equate to 6

m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 1, q) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, - 7)

m = [tex]\frac{-7-q}{0+1}[/tex] = - 7 - q , then

- 7 - q = 6 ( add 7 to both sides )

- q = 13 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

q = - 13

Answer:

q = -13?

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation is y = mx + c

m is the gradient

c is the y-intercept

where the line crosses the y axis

If 6 is the gradient then the equation is

y = 6x + c

Find c by using the coordinates given:

-7 = ( 6× 0) +c

-7 = 0 + c

c = -7

the equation is y = 6x -7

Substitute the other coordinates to find q:

y or q = (6 ×-1) - 7

q = -6 -7

q = -13
