Answer provided by our tutors
let 'x' represent the cost of the sando, then 'x+45' represents the cost of the shirt and 'x+45+93.80' represents the cost of the pants
630.80 = x + x+45 + x+45+93.80
solving for 'x' we have x=149
149+45 = 194
194 + 93.80 = 287.80
the sando cost $149
the shirt cost $194
the pants cost $287.80
