Answer:
h + s = 15
2h + s = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of hats Chevy made = h
Let the number of scarves made by Chevy = s
From the statement of the question, " Chevy made a total number of 15 items"
Equation will be h + s = 15
Amount of yarn used to make one hat = 0.2 kilograms
So amount of yarn used to make "h"hats = 0.2h kilograms
Similarly Amount of yarn used to make one scarf = 0.1 kilograms
So amount of yarn used to make "h" scarves = 0.1s kilograms
Another statement states " Chevy wants to use 2 kilograms of yarn to make these items".
Equation for this statement will be,
0.2h + 0.1s = 2
OR 2h + s = 20 [By multiplying the equation by 10]
Therefore, system of the equations will be
h + s = 15
2h + s = 20
Answer:
The store paid 6.67 times the profit made on the jeans
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the amount the clothing store pay for Jean be X
Let the amount the clothing store sells Jean be Y = X ×1.15
The profit (P) made is the difference between amount the clothing store sells Jean and the amount paid for Jean = Y - X = 1.15X - X
Profit (P) = 0.15X
X = P/0.15 = 6.67P
Therefore, the store paid 6.67 times the profit made on the jeans
