Question

1. The knitting club sold 40 scarves and hats at a winter festival and made $700 from

Answer 1

Answer:

s+h=40 and 18s+14h=700

Step-by-step explanation:

lets say

s= number of scarves sold

and

h=number of hats sold

since the total of hats/scarves equals 40 then that means that scarves+hats sold equals 40 so

s+h=40

the second constraint it found similarly,

scarves and hats are being sold for 18$ and 14$ respectively and together they need to equal 700$ so you plug it into a similar equal as before

18s+14h=700

Hope this helps!! :)

Answer 2

Answer:

$s+h=40$ and $18s+14h=700$.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The knitting club sold 40 scarves and hats at a winter festival and made $700 from   the sales. They charged $18 for each scarf and $14 for each hat. Here, s represents the number of scarves sold and h represents the number of hats sold.

To find: System of equations representing the constraints in the given situation.

Solution:

We have, number of scarves sold as s, and  the number of hats sold as h.

It is given that The knitting club sold 40 scarves and hats.

So, we have $s+h=40$

Also, they made $700 from  the sales. They charged $18 for each scarf and $14 for each hat.

So, we have

$18s+14h=700$

Hence, the system of equations representing the constraints in this situation is  $s+h=40$ and $18s+14h=700$.
