Question 824732: the prom committee sells t shirts to raise money for the prom. the profit from sales of 80 short sleeve t shirts and 100 long sleeve t shirts is $320.00 Profits from sales of 80 short sleeve t shirts and 75 long sleeve t shirts is $270.00. How much profit do they earn for each short sleeve t shirt sale? Answer by unlockmath(1688) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Hello,
Let's set up two equations to solve this:
80x + 100y = 320
80x + 75y = 270
Subtract these to get:
25x = 50
y = 2
Solve for x and we get:
x = 1.5
So the make $1.50
Make sense?
