Answer:

A = 219

C = 362

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

581 = C + A

and

$1090.50 = 1.5C + 2.5A

solve 1st for A

A =581 - C

substute into 2nd

1090.50 = 1.5C + 2.5(581 - C)

solve for C

1090.50 = 1.5C + 1452.50 - 2.5C

1090.50 = -C + 1452.50

1090.50 - 1452.50 = -C

-362 = -C

C = 362

then

581 = C + A

581 = 362 + A

219 = A

A = 219
