Answer:

Number of 12$ Shares? 25

Number of 14$ Shares? 57

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number of $12 shares.

Let y = number of $14 shares.

"Ivan has $1098 worth of $12 and $14 stock shares."
12x + 14y = 1098

The number of $14 shares is seven more than twice the number of $12 shares.

y = 2x + 7

We have a system of equations.

12x + 14y = 1098

y = 2x + 7

We can use the substitution method since the second equation is already solved for y. Substitute 2x + 7 for y in the first equation.

12x + 14(2x + 7) = 1098

12x + 28x + 98 = 1098

40x = 1000

x = 25

There are 25 $12 shares.

y = 2x + 7 = 2(25) + 7 = 57

There are 57 $14 shares.

Check:

25 × $12 + 57 × $1`4 = $300 + $798 = $1098

The total value is correct, so the answer is correct.
