Answer: Number of bags of 8. = 33

Number of bags of 10. = 31

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Number of bags of 8.

y = Number of bags of 10.

As per given.

8x+10y= 574   (i)

x=y+2 (ii)

Put value of x from (ii) in (i)

8(y+2)+10y= 574\\\\\Rightarrow\ 8y+16+10y=574\\\\\Rightarrow\ 18y=574-16\\\\\Rightarrow\ 18y=558\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=\dfrac{558}{18}\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=18

Put this in (i), x= 31+2=33

Hence,

Number of bags of 8. = 33

Number of bags of 10. = 31
