Answer: $6.50

Justification:

Work backward step by step.

1) Total bill: $125 given

2) Value of five scarves: multiply the number of scarves time the unit price

 5 * $12.00 = $ 60.00

3) Value of the socks: subtract the value of the scarves from the total bill

$ 125 - $ 60 = $65

4) divide $65 by the total number of pair of socks

If each bought two pairs, the total number of pairs is 5 * 2 = 10

So, the price of one pair is $65 / 10 = $6.50

Now,  you can verify:

- two pairs of socks each sister * 5 sisters = 10 pairs

- 10 pairs of socks at $6.50 each = 10*$6.50 = $ 65

- Five scarves at $ 12 each = 5 * $12 = $ 60

- Total bill = $ 65 + $ 60 = $ 125 => check.

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since both triangles are similar, we know this because they have 2 angles in common, they both have the same third angle.

To find the third angle, we use the angle sum. The sum of angles in a triangle will always equal 180 degrees. We are given a right angle which is 90 degrees and another angle, which is 53 degrees. Knowing this:

90 + 53 + x = 180 (I have chosen to call the third angle x)

when rearranging this we get

180 - 90 - 53 = x

now we solve

x = 37 degrees

Hope this helps,

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer: The number of different combinations of 2 vegetables are possible = 15 .

Step-by-step explanation:

In Mathematics , the number of combinations of selecting r values out of n values = ^nC_r=\dfrac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}

Given : Number of available vegetables = 6

Then, the number of different combinations of 2 vegetables are possible will be :

^6C_2=\dfrac{6!}{2!(6-2)!}=\dfrac{6\times5\times4!}{2\times4!}=15

Hence , the number of different combinations of 2 vegetables are possible = 15 .
