If two sweaters and four shirts cost $150, and four sweaters and three shirts cost $200, find the price of each shirt and each sweater.

Answer 1

Let x = number of sweaters and y = number of shirts.

Then 2x + 4y = 150 and 4x + 3y = 200.

Multiply the first equation by -2 and add to the second to get -5y = -100. So, y = 20 and x = 35.

Sweaters are $35 each and shirts are $20 apiece.

Answer 2

2sw+4sh=150

4sw+3sh=200

There's no correct answer. Need more imfo; like how is sw compared to sh?
