Answer : 23 • 32 • 7
The price of one hat is $2 and one pair of mittens is $5
Step-by-step explanation:
Hats and mittens are on sale at the store!
- One woman was able to buy 5 hats and 4 pairs of mittens for $30
- Another woman purchased 3 pairs of mittens and 2 hats for $19
- The price of one hat is x
- The price of one pair of mittens is y
We need to find x and y
∵ One woman was able to buy 5 hats and 4 pairs of mittens for $30
∵ The price of one hat is x
∵ The price of one pair of mittens is y
- Multiply 5 hats by x and 4 pairs of mittens by y and equate
their sum by 30
∴ 5x + 4y = 30 ⇒ (1)
∵ Another woman purchased 3 pairs of mittens and 2 hats for $19
- Multiply 2 hats by x and 3 pairs of mittens by y and equate
their sum by 19
∴ 2x + 3y = 19 ⇒ (2)
Now we have a system of equations to solve it
Multiply equation (1) by -2 and equation (2) by 5 to eliminate x
∵ -10x - 8y = -60 ⇒ (3)
∵ 10x + 15y = 95 ⇒ (4)
- Add equations (3) and (4)
∴ 7y = 35
- Divide both sides by 7
∴ y = 5
Substitute the value of y in equation (1) or (2) to find x
∵ 2x + 3(5) = 19
∴ 2x + 15 = 19
- Subtract 15 from both sides
∴ 2x = 4
- Divide both sides by 2
∴ x = 2
The price of one hat is $2 and one pair of mittens is $5
