Answer:

Style A shoes sold : <u>152</u>

Style B shoes sold : <u>88</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

  • Style A shoes = x
  • Style B shoes = y

Forming equations :

  1. x = 2y - 24
  2. 66.95x + 84.95y = 17,652

Substitute the value of x from 1 in 2.

  • 66.95 (2y - 24) + 84.95y = 17,652
  • 133.90y - 1606.80 + 84.95y = 17,652
  • 218.85y = 19258.80
  • <u>y = 88</u>

<u />

Finding x :

  • x = 2(88) - 24
  • x = 176 - 24
  • <u>x = 152</u>

<u />

Solution :

  • Style A shoes sold : <u>152</u>
  • Style B shoes sold : <u>88</u>
