1 answer:
Answer:
The boys club sold 52 bags of hardwood mulch and 84 bags of pine bark mulch
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> the number of bags of hardwood mulch sold
y ----> the number of bags of pine bark mulch sold
we know that
A local boys club sold 136 bags of mulch and made a total of $400
so
----> equation A
----> equation B
Solve the system by graphing
Remember that the solution is the intersection point both graphs
Using a graphing tool
The solution is the point (52,84)
see the attached figure
therefore
