POINT A I had the same question in my math class !!!
Answer:
Dots sold 152 t-shirts and 38 shorts sold.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let t = t-shirts and s = shorts.
We know that people bought 4 times as many t-shorts as shorts, which can be set to the equation t = 4s
Since t-shirts cost $2, shorts cost $4, and the total sales was $456, we can set the equation 2t +4s = 456
So our two equations are:
t = 4s
2t + 4s = 456
Substitute t from the 1st equation into the 2nd:
2(4s) + 4s = 456
8s + 4s = 456
12s = 456
s = 38
There were 38 shorts sold.
Since we have the number of shorts, we can plug that back into the 1st equation to find the number of t-shirts sold:
t = 4s
t = 4(38)
t = 152
There were 152 t-shirts sold.
