Question

The total cost of a pair of shoes and a hoodie is $150 the hoodie cost $100 more than the pair of shoes how much does each item cost?

Answer 1

shoes = $25

hoodie = $125

Explanation:

total cost = $150

hoodie = x + 100

shoes = x

x + x + 100 = 150

2x = 150 - 100

x = 50/2

x = 25

shoes = $25

hoodie = $125

add them up and u get the price of the shoe 125+25= $150

Answer 2

x + y = 150

x = y + 100

2y + 100 = 150

2y = 50

y = 25

shoes are 25 hoodie is 125
