A customer at a store paid $42 for 4 pairs of pants and 3 shirts. At the same store, a second customer paid $2 more for 1 pair of pants and 7 shirts. The price of each pair of pants is the same, and the price of each shirt is the same. Which system of equations can be used to find the price in dollars of each pair of pants, x, and each shirt, y?

The system of Equations:

4x + 3y = 42

x + 7y = 44

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price in dollars of

each pair of pants = x

each shirt = y

A customer at a store paid $42 for 4 pairs of pants and 3 shirts.

Hence:

4 × x + 3 × y = $42

4x + 3y = 42

At the same store, a second customer paid $2 more for 1 pair of pants and 7 shirts.

This means he, paid $42 +$2 = $44

Hence:

1 × x + 7 × y = 44

x + 7y = 44

The system of equations can be used to find the price in dollars of each pair of pants, x, and each shirt, y is

4x + 3y = 42 Equation 1

x + 7y = 44 Equation 2

we'll this would mean that the dunk tank and the bounce house are the same for 20 hours because the 2 represents that the two activities, and the 20 represents the amount of hours they both are. so with this said, it means that the answer is c. the costs for a dunk tank and bounce house are the same for 20 hours.

c.the costs for a dunk tank and bounce house are the same for 20 hours.

hope this .
