Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
shirt = x, pants: y
Katie equation: 3x + 2y = 80, Erin equation: 3x + 4y = 116
3x + 2y = 80
3x = 80 - 2y
x = 80/3 - 2y/3
3(80/3 - 2y/3) + 4y = 116
80 - 2y + 4y = 116
80 + 2y + 116
2y = 36
y = 18, pants cost $18
3x + 4(18) = 116
3x + 72 = 116
3x = 44
x = 14.66... (66 is repeating), shirts cost $14.66
check work:
Katie: 3(14.66) + 2(18) = 79.98 which is roughly 80.
