Answer:

£13

Explanation:

Set up a system of equations where s represents the cost of one shirt and j represents the cost of one jumper:

2s + j = 29

s + j = 21

Multiply the bottom equation by -2 to solve by elimination by cancelling out the s variables:

2s + j = 29

-2s - 2j = -42

-j = -13

j = 13

One jumper will cost £13
