Given:
The system of equations that represent the constraints for the given situation is
To find:
The solution of given system of equations.
Solution:
We have,
...(i)
...(ii)
Multiply equation (i) by 4.
...(iii)
Subtracting (iii) from (ii), we get
Divide both sides by 12.90.
Put this value in (i).
The solution of system of equations is x=1.5 and y=2.75. It means, the yards of silk are 1.5 and yards of cotton are 2.75.
