James bought two T-shirts and one pair of jeans at an online store and paid $40, not including taxes, for his purchase. A month later, the same store sold the T-shirts and jeans at a 50% discount from their original prices. James bought two T-shirts and five pairs of jeans for $60, not including taxes.

Assuming the base prices of the T-shirts and the jeans are the same on both occasions, and ignoring the taxes, the price of a T-shirt is $_

and the price of a pair of jeans is $_

The price of a t-shirt is $10 and the price of a pair of jeans is $20.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Assume the cost of one t-shirt is x and the cost of one pair of jeans is y.

From the question,

, take this as equation 1,

For the second scenario, there was a 50% discount, so we multiply the total price i.e $60 by 2 to form equation 2.

, take this as equation 2.

Step 2:

When we subtract equation 2 from equation 1, the x variable is canceled out and y can be calculated.

Step 3:

Substituting this value of y in any of the previous equations we will get x's value.

Here this value of y i.e is substituted in equation 1.

So we have and So the price of a t-shirt is $10 and the price of a pair of jeans is $20.

x> 6

step-by-step explanation:

8x+8> 7x+14

8x-7x> 14-8

x> 6

step-by-step explanation:

if you want to solve percent error follow these steps.

1. subtract the accepted value from the experimental value.

2. take the absolute value of step 1.

3. divide that answer by the accepted value.

4. multiply that answer by 100 and add the % symbol to express the answer as a percentage.

if you want to solve percent of change just do this.

1. work out the difference (increase) between the two numbers you are comparing.

2. divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100. if your answer is a negative number then this is a percentage decrease.

hope this : )
