Answer:
x = (22/17), y= (79/17)
Step-by-step explanation:
Just substitute x = 2y - 8 into y = 9x - 7 and solve.
Step-by-step explanation:
given:
$12.50- the price of the tshirts
40- the tshirts they have sold
$850- the raise they need
solve:
$12.50 × 40 = $500 (the price of tshirts and tshirts they have sold)
$850 - $500 = $350 (the raise they need and the money they have so far from the 40 tshirts they have sold)
$350 ÷ $12.50 = 28 (the money they lack and the price of a tshirt)
answer:
thus, they need to sell 28 more tshirts to have the raise of at least $850
hope this helps, good luck! :)
