Question is Incomplete; Complete question is given below;

Cloud Nine is having a sale on all shirts and pants in the store. Olivia purchased 8 shirts and 4 pairs of pants for $176. Raheem purchased 3 shirts and 4 pairs of pants for $116. Let x represent the price of a shirt and y represent the price of a pair of pants. Write a system of equations, and use the elimination method to find a reasonable price for a pair of pants.

Answer:

The system of equations are $\left \{ {{8x+4y=176} \atop {3x+4y=116}} \right.$

The reasonable price for pair of pants is $20.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of shirt be 'x'.

Let price of pair of pants be 'y'.

Given:

Olivia purchased 8 shirts 4 pairs of pants for $176

So we can say that;

8 multiplied by the price of shirt plus 4 multiplied by the price of pair of pants is equal to 176.

framing in equation form we get;

$8x+4y=176 \ \ \ \ equation \ 1$

Also Given:

Raheem purchased 3 shirts and 4 pairs of pants for 116.

So we can say that;

3 multiplied by the price of shirt plus 4 multiplied by the price of pair of pants is equal to 116.

framing in equation form we get;

$3x+4y=116 \ \ \ \ equation \ 2$

Hence the system of equation are $\left \{ {{8x+4y=176} \atop {3x+4y=116}} \right.$

Now by using elimination method we will subtract equation 2 from equation 1 we get;

$(8x+4y)-(3x+4y)=176-116\\\\8x+4y-3x-4y = 60\\\\5x =60\\\\x=\frac{60}{5}=\$12$

Now Substituting the value of x in equation 1 we get;

$8x+4y=176\\\\8\times 12+4y =176\\\\96+4y=176\\\\4y =176-96\\\\4y = 80\\\\y= \frac{80}{4} =\$ 20$

Hence The reasonable price for pair of pants is $20.

The correct option is (C)

<h3>What is Unitary method?</h3>

The unitary method is a technique for solving a problem by first finding the value of a single unit, and then finding the necessary value by multiplying the single unit value

Given:

There are 61 new Ford Transits.

If each Ford Transit costs Leonard $8,532.

Then, total purchasing will be

=8532*61

= $520,452.

Hence, Leonard total purchase is $520,452.
