The italian size of a suit jacket is n centimeters, where n is the linear distance between the armpits. the american size of a suit jacket is 2.5p centimeters, where 2.5p is twice the linear distance between the armpits. if, for a particular jacket, n = p + 10, which of the following is closest to the value of n?

N =50

Explanation:

In this case we have to write the two equations they give us and try to solve them

   N = P +10

They say 2.5P is twice the distance between the armpits

2.5P = 2N

We see that they are two equations with two unknowns, so they can be solved substitute in the first

 N = (2 / 2.5) N + 10

 N [1 - 2 / 2.5] = 10

 N [1 - 0.8] = 10

 N = 10 / 0.2

  N = 50 cm
