Amy sold 10 t-shirts and 2 sweatshirts for $56. Adam sold 5 t-shirts and 3 sweatshirts for $48.
Write a system of equations to represent this
situation. Let x=cost of a t-shirt and y=cost of a
sweatshirt.
Determine the price of one t-shirt and the price
of one sweatshirt.

$3.6 = cost of a t-shirt

$10 = cost of a  sweatshirt

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

10 t-shirts and 2 sweatshirts = $56.

5 t-shirts and 3 sweatshirts = $48.

x = cost of a t-shirt

y = cost of a  sweatshirt

Find:

Price

Computation:

10x + 2y = 56eq1

5x + 3y = 48eq2

From 2 x eq2

10x + 6y = 96eq3

From eq3 - eq1

4y = 40

y = 10

from eq1

10x + 2(10) = 56

10x + 20 = 56

10x = 36

x = 3.6

$3.6 = cost of a t-shirt

$10 = cost of a  sweatshirt

$8

step-by-step explanation:

it is pretty much backwards.

you take the 4x2 multiply that, and that is = $8

1.30
