Question

Part A
Skyler buys 8 T-Shirts and 5 hats for $220. The next day, he buys 5 T-shirts and 1 hat for $112. Choose the system of equations that models the situation.

A. 5t + 8h = 220
t + 5h = 112
B. 13(t – h) = 220
6(t – h) = 112
C. 8t + 5h = 220
5t + h = 112
Part B
Skyler buys 8 T-Shirts and 5 hats for $220. The next day, he buys 5 T-shirts and 1 hat for $112. Use the system of equations from Part A to find the cost of each T-shirt and each hat.

T-shirt cost: $
hat cost: $

Answer 1

Answer:

answer for part a is C

answer for part b is T-shirt is $20 and hat is $12

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

t = T-shirts

h = hats

8t + 5h = 220

5t + h = 112

so the answer is C

Part B:

multiply the second equation by 5

8t + 5h = 220

25t+ 5h = 560

17t = 340

t = 20

h = 12
