Answer:

  • Shirt costs $10.50, pants cost $27

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Set equations as follows</h3>
  • 3s + 2p = 85.5
  • 4s + 3p = 123
<h3>Solve the system by elimination</h3>

Multiply the first equation by 4 and the second one by 3 and subtract equations

  • 4(3s + 2p) - 3(4s + 3p) = 4(85.5) - 3(123)
  • 12s + 8p - 12s - 9p = 342 - 369
  • - p = - 27
  • p = 27

Find the value of s

  • 3s + 2*27 = 85.5
  • 3s + 54 = 85.5
  • 3s = 85.5 - 54
  • 3s = 31.5
  • s = 31.5/3
  • s = 10.5
