Answer: 64 short-sleeved shirts were purchased.

Step-by-step explanation: (x = short-sleeved shirts. y = long-sleeved shirts.)  

x + y = 100

10x + 12y = 1072

—12(x + y = 100) >>> -12x - 12y = -1200                                                                                                           10x + 12y = 1072 (add the equations and cancel out the 12y)

-2x/-2 (-2 cancels out) = -128/-2   (divide both by -2)

<u>x = 64 shirts purchased for $10 each.   (Hope this helped!)</u>

(vvvThis next part doesn’t answer the question, but I should finish the equation.)

(Plug in 64 for x)>>> 64 + y = 100 (then, subtract 64 from both sides) >>> 64 - 64 = 0 (they cancel out) and 100 - 64 = 36

<u>y = 36 shirts purchased for $12 each.</u>

I really hope this helped! :)

Length of garden = 234 yards

Breadth of garden = 1 yard

She grows roses 1/2 of her garden.

Question asked:

How many square yards are Gini's garden has roses ?

Solution:

First of all we will find area of rectangular garden.

Area \  of \  rectangle = Length\times breadth

                             =234\times1 =234  \ square \ yards

Then, as here given half of garden, she grows roses, we will find half of the

rectangular garden.

\frac{1}{2} \ of 234\\\frac{1}{2} \times234 =117\ square\ yards

Therefore, 117 square yards of her garden has roses.
