You want to solve this set of linear equations by the elimination method.

Let x=price of bag of flour and y=price of bag of sugar

Multiply the first equation by -3.

-3(7x+5y=584)
Multiply the second equation by 5.
5(5x+3y=384)

Solve by elimination.

X=42

Substitute value of x into one of the original equations.

Y=58
