(a) Let x represent the number of sports tires sold, y the number of all-season tires sold. (1) (2) 9 x – 8 y = 0 (3) 45 x – 40 y = 0 48 x + 40 y = 744 Add: In (3) 8 sports tires were sold, 9 all-season tires were sold. (b) Let the number of $2.50-tickets be x and that of $3.50-tickets be y. (1) (2) To eliminate x Subtract: (c) Let the price of a jacket be $ x and that of a pair of pants be $ y. (1) (2)
Substitute (2) in (1) (d) Let the cost of a case of white bordeaux be $ x and that of a case of red bordeaux be $ y. (1) (2) Substitute (2) in (1)
