Answer:

The cost of a card is 4 dollars

The cost of a baseball is 18 dollars

Explanation:

13c + 9b = 214

3c + 8b = 156

(13c + 9b = 214) × -8

( 3c + 8b = 156) × 9

-104c - 72b = -1712

27c + 72b = 1404

-------------------------------

-77c = -308

÷-77 ÷-77

--------------------

c = 4

3c + 8b = 156

3(4) + 8b = 156

12 + 8b = 156

-12 -12

----------------------

8b = 144

÷8 ÷8

------------------

b = 18

I hope this helps!
