Answer:
t- shirt costs £15
Explanation:
let cost of t- shirt be t and cost of hat be h
construct a pair of simultaneous equations from the given information, that is
5t + h = 83 → (1)
2t + h = 38 → (2)
subtract (2) from (1) term by term to eliminate h
(5t - 2t) + (h - h) = 83 - 38
3t + 0 = 45
3t = 45 ( divide both sides by 3 )
t = 15
the cost of a t- shirt is £15
