The math club is selling shirts to raise money for a pi day convention. short sleeve shirts are $5 and long sleeved shirts are $10. if $600 total is raised by selling 85 shirts, how many of each type of shirt was sold? in your response, be sure to include: a system of equations to solve the prompt. # short sleeved shirts sold # long sleeved shirts sold

# short sleeved shirts sold  is 50

# long sleeved shirts sold 35

First, you need to set up the equation.

(5x)+10*(85-x)=600

5x+850-10x=600

-5x+850=600

-5x=600-850

-5x=-250

x=50

After you solve the equation, you know, that 50 short sleeve t-shirts were sold. Now, you need to find out how many long sleeved t-shirts were sold. 85-50=35. Now you know, that there were 35 long sleeved t-shirt sold.

You can now check your answers. 50*5 + 35*10=600

That is correct.
