Answer 1

Answer:

part A; B and Part B;  pencils

Step-by-step explanation:

you want to find out how many pens and pencils you cn buy with that 90$ so you want to do

.75y+.15x=90

pens=50

pencils=50

but you want to add .75+.15 which = .90

then you divide 90/.90

and that equals 100

then split it up and each gets 50
