Question 512169
each shirt	x	$						
each tie	y	$						
								
6	x	+	2	y	=	88.68	.............1	
4	x	+	3	y	=	68.27	.............2	
Eliminate y								
multiply (1)by 		-3						
Multiply (2) by		2						
-18	x		-6	y	=	-266.04		
8	x		6	y	=	136.54		
Add the two equations								
-10	x				=	-129.5		
/	-10							
x	=	12.95		
plug value of 			x	in (1)				
6	x	+	2	y	=	88.68		
77.7		+	2	y	=	88.68		
			2	y	=	88.68		-77.7
			2	y	=	10.98		
				y	=	5.49
