Kenny is ordering uniforms for both the girls' and boys' tennis clubs. He is ordering shirts for 43 players and two coaches at a total cost of $658.35. Additionally, he is ordering visors for each player at a total cost of $368.51. How much with each player pay for the shirt and visor?

Sagot :

Answer: 23.20 dollars

Cost for 1 shirt = $14.63

Cost for 1 visor = $8.57

Total = 14.63+8.57 = 23.20

==============================================================

Explanation:

s = cost of 1 shirt

v = cost of 1 visor

costs are in dollars

There are 43 players and 2 coaches that get a shirt. There are 43+2 = 45 people total that get a shirt. The amount of money spent on all the shirts is 45s because we multiply the number of people (45) with the cost per shirt (which is s). Set this equal to 658.35 and solve for s

45s = 658.35

s = 658.35/45

s = 14.63

Each shirt costs $14.63, and this is the amount each player should pay.

-------------------

Kenny is also ordering 43 visors. The total cost here is 368.51 dollars. This means the equation we need to solve is 43v = 368.51

Divide both sides by 43 to isolate v

43v = 368.51

v = 368.51/43

v = 8.57

Each visor costs $8.57, and this is the amount each player should pay.

-------------------

Add up the two costs we found and we get 14.63+8.57 = 23.20, which is the total cost each player must pay for both a shirt and a visor.
