In a discount clothing store, all sweaters are sold at one fixed price and all shirts are sold at another fixed price. If one sweater and three shirts cost $ 56, while three sweaters and two shirts cost $ 77, find the price of one sweater and the price of one shirt

let soccer = x and golf = y

part a

1st equation: x + y = 125

2nd equation: x = y +45

part b

replace x in the 1st equation with the 2nd one:

y + 45 + y = 125

simplify:

2y + 45 = 125

subtract 45 from each side:

2y = 80

divide both sides by 2:

y = 80/2

y = 40

she plays golf for 40 minutes.

part c

no because she plays soccer for 45 minutes longer than golf 40 +45 =   85 minutes, not 80 minutes.

what is the original number? you forgot to add it.
