Answer 2

You  want to take home 6 items of clothing. you can buy 4 jeans and 2 all dresses using 200 dollars .

Given :

You discover a store that has all jeans for $25 and all dresses for $50

Total of 6 items needed

Total amount you can spend is 200 dollars

Let x be the number of jeans and y be the number of all dresses

Lets frame equations using x  and y

Total of 6 items ,

$x+y=6\\y=6-x$

all jeans is for  $25 and all dresses is for $50. total of 200 dollars can spend

$25x+50y=200$

Substitute y=6-x in second equation

$25x+50(6-x)=200\\25x+300-50x=200\\-25x+300=200\\-25x+300-300=200-300\\-25x=-100\\\frac{-25x}{-25}=\frac{-100}{-25}\\x=4$

Now substitute x=4 in first equation

$y=6-x\\y=6-4\\y=2$

you can by 4 jeans and 2 all dresses
