The volleyball team at West View High School is comparing T-shirt companies where they can purchase their practice shirts. The two companies, Shirt Box and Just Tees, are represented by this system of equations where x is the number of T-shirts and y is the total cost of the T-shirts. y = 10.5x

y = 7.5x + 30

How many T-shirts would the volleyball team need to purchase from each company for the total cost to be equal?

your answer would be b

step-by-step explanation:

the monthly balance will be $75,000

answer: solve 5\cdot 2^x=2405⋅2  

x

=2405, dot, 2, start superscript, x, end superscript, equals, 240.

solution

to solve for xxx, we must first isolate the exponential part. to do this, divide both sides by 555 as shown below. we do not multiply the 555 and the 222 as this goes against the order of operations!

\begin{aligned} 5\cdot 2^x& =240 2^x& =48 \\ \end{aligned}  

5⋅2
