Andre's school orders some new supplies for the chemistry lab. The online store shows a pack of 10 test tubes costs $4 less than a set of nested beakers. In order to fully equip the lab, the school orders 12 sets of beakers and 8 packs of test tubes.

1. Since t is in terms of b from the first equation, this expression can be substituted into the second equation where t appears. Write and equation that shows this substitution.

2.solve the equation for b

3.How much did the school pay for a set of beakers? For a pack of text tubes?
