bought a total of 9 items. How many shirts did Amy buy

Respuesta :

Answer:

3 shirts and 6 skirts

Step-by-step explanation:

lets call number of shirts x and number of skirts y

so x+y=9

17x+22y=168

multiplying the first equation by 17 we get

17x+17y=153

17x+22y=168

subtracting we get

5x= 15

x=3

and we know x+y=9 so y=6

so 3 shirts and 6 skirts

if my answer helps please mark as brainliest.
