Answer 1

Answer:

T-Shirt Cost = £7

Hat Cost = £3

Explanation:

Important Information:

4 t-shirts and a hat costs £31.00

2 t-shirts and a hat costs £17.00.

Here we assume t-shirt be x and hat be y.

Explanation/Solution:

Based on the above information, the calculation is as follows:

4x + y = 31

2x + y = 17

Now subtract equation 2 from 1

2x = 14

x = 7

So y is

4(7) + y = 31

28 + y = 31

y = 3

Therefore we can conclude that The t-shirt cost £7 and Hat cost £3.
