Sean wants to spend (example) $100 on clothing and he wants to purchase
6 additional items for his wardrobe. Each pair of pants costs $20 and each shirt costs $15.
Show the solution graphically.

Point (2, 4)

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of pants and y be the number of shirts

x + y = 6

20x + 15y = 100

multiply the first equation by -20

-20x -20y = -120

20x + 15y = 100

subtract the equations

-5y = -20

y = 4

replace y in equation 1

x + 4 = 6

x = 2
