Hi,
The cost of 6 bedspreads and 8 pillows is $448.12. 
Three bedspreads and 10 pillows cost $323.00. 
Find the cost of each bedspread{{{highlight(x)}}} and each pillow{{{highlight(y)}}}.
Translate into two equations: 
 6x + 8y = 448.12
<u> 3x + 10y = 323.00</u>  ||Multiply 2nd Eq by -2 and add to 1st EQ to eliminate x
     -12y = -197.88
        y = $98.94
