Jan spent 53$ for boots. this was 15$ less than twice what she spent for a blouse how much did she spend on the blouse ?

Jan spen 68$ on the blouse. 
53 + 15 = 68
hope this helps!

Jan spent $15 less than twice what she spent for a blouse on boots. The first thing to do is to convert this into an algabraic expression.

x= The cost of the blouse

53=2x-15

Then we just solve that equation to find out how much Jan spent on the blouse.

68=2x
34=x

So Jan spent $34 on the blouse.

Ithink its 126 hope its
