At the dance shoe store, they sell Tap, Point, and Ballet shoes. A pair of point shoes are double the price of ballet shoes. The tap shoes are $10 more than ballet shoes. If the total price of all the shoes is $648, how much is each shoe

a pair of Tap shoes costs $169.50

a pair of Point shoes costs $319.00

a pair of Ballet shoes costs $159.50

Step-by-step explanation:

first tell your teacher, that the problem description is misleading.

as a shoe store has more than one pair per type. so, "all the shoes" would mean all the sites in the store. but that is for sure not meant here.

what your teacher hopefully meant was that the total price of buying one pair of each of the shoe types is $648.

and your teacher was hopefully asking for the price of pairs of shoes, and not actually single shoes.

my solution bases on these assumptions.

so, we got Tap (t), Point (p) and Ballet (b) shoes.

buying one pair each is

t + p + b = 648

now we know some other information.

p = 2×b (Point shoes are double the price of Ballet shoes)

t = b + 10 (Tap $10 more than Ballet)

so, we can replace t and p by expressions of b and get

b + 10 + 2×b + b = 648

4×b + 10 = 648

4×b = 638

b = 159.50

p = 2×159.50 = 319.00

t = 159.50 + 10 = 169.50

we'll this would mean that the dunk tank and the bounce house are the same for 20 hours because the 2 represents that the two activities, and the 20 represents the amount of hours they both are. so with this said, it means that the answer is c. the costs for a dunk tank and bounce house are the same for 20 hours.

c.the costs for a dunk tank and bounce house are the same for 20 hours.

hope this .
