Question 1112677: Ricardo sold 400 decorated t-shirts at a craft show. Blue ones cost $4.00 and red ones cost $3.00. He received a total of $1500 for the shirts. How many blue ones did he sell? Answer by TigerAlgebra(40) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let x be the number of blue shirts.
So, we have 400-x Red Shirts.
And
Price*Count=Total Price
Price Of Blue * Number of Blue + Price of Red * Number Of Red= Total Price
4x+3(400-x)=1500
x=300
