Shirts cost $6 each and caps cost $3 each. write a system of equations to describe the situation. let x represent the number of shirts and let y represent the number of caps.

Answer 1

x+y=8 and 6x+3y=36 is the system of equations that describe the situation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Amount to spend on shirts and caps printing = $36

Cost of each shirt = $6

Cost of each cap = $3

Number of people that will wear them = 8

Let,

x represent the number of shirts

y represent the number of caps

According to given statement;

x+y=8

6x+3y=36

x+y=8 and 6x+3y=36 is the system of equations that describe the situation.
