Kelsey buys several pairs of uniform pants for $17.95 each, and a sweater for $24. jeana shops at a different store and buys several pairs of uniform pants for $18.95 each, plus a sweater for $18. is there a situation in which they pay the same amount for their purchases? explain.

A situation in which they pay the same amount for their purchases is;

When they both buy 6 pairs of pants each and 1 sweater each.

We are told Cost for kersey is;

Each Pant = $17.95

Each Sweater = $24

If number of pants is x. Then total cost for kersey is;

17.95x + 24

We are told Cost for Jeana is;

Each pair of Pant = $18.95

A Sweater = $18

If number of pairs of pants is x. Then total cost for Jeana is;

18.95x + 18

A situation where their total cost will be the same is;

17.95x + 24 = 18.95x + 18

18.95x - 17.95x = 24 - 18

x = 6

They need to buy 6 pairs of uniform pants so that they pay the same amount for their purchases

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the no. of pairs of uniform pants  for which the total cost in both the cases will be same.

Case 1:

Cost of 1 pairs of uniform pants = $17.95 each

Cost of x pairs of uniform pants = $17.95x

Cost of sweater = $24.

Total cost = 24+17.95x

Case 2:

Cost of 1 pairs of uniform pants = $18.95

Cost of x pairs of uniform pants = $18.95x

Cost of sweater = $18

Total cost = 18+18.95x

Hence they need to buy 6 pairs of uniform pants so that they pay the same amount for their purchases

x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x

step-by-step explanation:

last month maria hiked the 5-mile mountain trail a number of times and she hiked the 10-mile canal trail several times. let x represent the number of times she hiked the 5-mile trail, and let y represent the number of times she hiked the 10-mile trail. if she hiked a total of 90 miles, which equation can be used to find the number of times maria hiked each trail? x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x
