For this problem you have yo set up two equations.
White shirts = w Yellow shirts = y
1st: w + y = 21
2nd: 9.95w + 11.50y = 235.30
Now we're going to do system of equations using substitution.
If w + y = 21, then y = 21 - w
If y = 21 - w, then you can substitute this in the second equation for y.
9.95w + 11.50(21 - w) = 235.30
9.95w + 241.5 - 11.50w = 235.30
-1.55w + 241.5 = 235.30
-1.55w = -6.2
w = 4, so 4 whites shirt were sold.
Now I'm finding out how many yellow shirts were sold using one of the two equations at the top.
w + y = 21
4 + y = 21
y = 17
So 17 yellow shirts were sold and 4 white shirts were sold.
Answer:
The constant of proportionality would just be 12.9.
Step-by-step explanation:
This equation is already simplified enough to were the constant of proportionality is just the number attached to the x.
26 - 4s = 9s
26 = 9s + 4s
26 = 13s
13s = 26
s = 26/13
s = 2
