A:
Answer:The answer to your question is belowStep-by-step explanation:Data3 shirts and 2 pair of pantscost = $300x = shirt pricey = pants pricea) 3x + 2y = 300b) 2y = - 3x + 300 y = -3/2 x + 300/2 y = -3/2 x + 150c) y = -3/2 (20) + 150 y = -30 + 150 y = 120 each of the pants costs $120d) 3x + 2y = 300 if y = 0 3x = 300 x = 300/3 x = 100 It could be the highest cost of a shirte) 3x + 2y = 300if x = 0 3(0) + 2y = 300 2y = 300 y = 300/2 y = 150 it could be the highest cost of a pair of pants.
