Adam and Luke are huge Omaha Lancers Hockey fans. Adam buys a T-shirt and two souvenir pucks for $36.00, and Luke spends $64.00 on two T-shirts and three pucks. Write a system of equations using x to represent the price of a T-shirt and y to represent a price of a puck. DO NOT SOLVE.

Answer 1

x +2y = 36

2x+3y =64

Explanation:

x = price of a T-shirt

y = price of a puck

Adam buys a T-shirt and two souvenir pucks for $36.00

x +2y = 36

Luke spends $64.00 on two T-shirts and three pucks

64 = 2x+3y

Our system of equations is

x +2y = 36

2x+3y =64
