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.

shirt = $20

sweater = $35

Step-by-step explanation:

This question would be solved using simultaneous equation

Let the price of sweater be represented by a

Let the price of shirt be represented by b

The following equations can be derived from the question

2a + 4b = 150   equation 1

4a + 3b = 200   equation 2

Multiply equation 1 by 2

4a + 8b = 300    equation 3

Subtract equation 2 from 3

5b = 100

divide both sides of the equation by 5

b = 20

substitute for b in equation 1

2a + 4(20) = 150

2a + 80 = 150

collect like terms

2a = 150 - 80

2a = 70

divide both sides by 2

a = 35

Price of sweater = $35

Price of shirt = $20
