Answer:
Style A shoes sold : <u>152</u>
Style B shoes sold : <u>88</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let :
- Style A shoes = x
- Style B shoes = y
Forming equations :
- x = 2y - 24
- 66.95x + 84.95y = 17,652
Substitute the value of x from 1 in 2.
- 66.95 (2y - 24) + 84.95y = 17,652
- 133.90y - 1606.80 + 84.95y = 17,652
- 218.85y = 19258.80
- <u>y = 88</u>
<u />
Finding x :
- x = 2(88) - 24
- x = 176 - 24
- <u>x = 152</u>
<u />
Solution :
- Style A shoes sold : <u>152</u>
- Style B shoes sold : <u>88</u>
