Question 464995: on saturday night, the manager of a shoe store evaluates the receipts of the previous week's sales. Two hundred fifty pairs of two different styles of running shoes were sold. One style sold for $75.50 and the other sold for $89.95. The receipts totaled $23,031. The cash register that was supposed to record the number of each type of shoe sold malfunctioned.
