Let the price of 1 shirt be represented by = s

A pair of pants costs twice as much as a shirt, then the cost of pants is = 2s

The total cost of 1 pair of pants and 1 shirt is $18 , means : s+2s=18

Solving this we get,                            

3s=18

s=6

So, the price of 1 shirt is $6 and price of 1 pair of pants is = 2s = 2*6 = $12.

Answer:

s + 2s = 18, will be the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 's' represents the cost of 1 shirt.

As per given statement in the question "a pair of pants costs twice as much as a shirt".

The cost of a pair of pants = $2s

The total cost of 1 pair of pants and 1 shirt = $18

so the equation to find the cost of 1 shirt will be

s + 2s = 18

3s = 18

\frac{3s}{3}=\frac{18}{3}

s = $6

skad [1K]

Usando conceptos de funciones lineales, se encuentra que hizo 5 cortes.

----------------

Una funcion lineale tiene el seguiente formato:

y(x) = ax + b

En que:

  • a eres lá inclinacion, o sea, lo que es pago por cada corte.
  • b eres el intercepto, o sea, lo pagamiento fixo por día.

----------------

  • Pagan $50 por corte realizado, o sea, a = 50.
  • $25 fixo al día, o sea, b = 25

Entonces, la funcion de su recibimiento y, como funcion de su numero de cortes x, es da por:

y(x) = 25 + 50x

----------------

  • Recibió $275, o sea, y(x) = 275

Entonces, el numero de cortes es:

y(x) = 25 + 50x

25 + 50x = 275

50x = 250

x = \frac{250}{50}

x = 5

Realizó 5 cortes.

n200080 [17]

Answer: 1

B is the center of a circle of radius 1.  A and C are on the circle 100 degrees apart.  So arc AC is 100 degrees.  Arc AC the long way around is 360-100=260 degrees.   That means any point D on arc AC will subtend a 130 degree angle.  BD is a radius for all of those, and the radius is 1.
