Question
Answer:
For this you will need to calculate the number of sweaters - 7x. Then you need to calculate the number of shirts - 9y. Last you need to calculate the number of pants - 12z. To balance the equation, you must calculate the total price $172+$269+$74 = $515. The equation is 7x+9y+12z = $515.
