6x - y = 31 so y = 6x - 31
substitute y = 6x - 31 into 3x + 7y = 8

3x + 7y = 8
3x + 7(6x - 31) = 8
3x + 42x -217 = 8
45x = 225
x = 5

y = 6x - 31
y = 6(5) - 31
y = 30 - 31
y = -1

answer
x = 5 and y = -1

Helen [10]

Answer: a) $2155, b) $1763.03.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of cable knit sweaters = 15

Cost per sweaters = $65.00

Number of pairs of khaki twill pants = 22

Cost of each pair = $50.00

Number of casual jackets = 18

Cost of each jackets = $62.00

total sale volume would be

$15\times 65+22\times 50+18\times 62\\\\=\$3191$

Employee discount = 35%

Additional discount = 15%

So, Total markdown dollars taken is given by

$3191\times \dfrac{100-35}{100}\times \dfrac{100-15}{100}\\\\=3191\times \dfrac{65}{100}\times \dfrac{85}{100}\\\\=3191\times 0.65\times 0.85\\\\=\$1763.0275$
