Question

A sports store sells a total of 70- Soccer balls in one month and collects a total of $2,400. Write and Solve a System of equations to determine how many of each type of soccer ball were sold.

hintHint:

Given, Total income of the store for 70 soccer balls is $2,400.
There are two types of soccer balls and the cost of each type is different .
Frame equation considering no.of limited edition soccer balls sold be x
And no.of Pro NSL soccer ball sold be y and solve them to find  x and y.

The correct answer is: The no.of limited edition soccer balls sold be 27 and no.of Pro NSL soccer ball sold are 43.


    Ans :- The no.of limited edition soccer balls sold be 27 and no.of Pro NSL soccer ball sold are 43.
    Explanation :-
    Let no.of limited edition soccer balls sold be x ,no.of Pro NSL soccer ball sold be y.
    Step 1:- Frame equations
    Total no.of ball is 70
    I.e x + y = 70             —Eq1
    Total cost of balls is $2,400
    Cost of x  limited edition soccer balls is 65x (as per ball cost is given in diagram)
    And Cost of y Pro NSL soccer ball is 15x(as per ball cost is given in diagram)
    I.e 65x + 15y = 2,400            —Eq2
    Step 2:- Eliminate y to find x
    Do Eq2 -15(Eq1) to eliminate y
    65x + 15y - 15(x+y) = 2400 - 15(70)
    65x - 15x = 1350
    50x = 1350 ⇒ x = 27
    Step 3:- substitute value of x to find y
    x + y = 70 ⇒ 27 + y = 70
    ⇒ y = 70 - 27
    ∴y = 43
    ∴The no.of limited edition soccer balls sold be 27 and no.of Pro NSL soccer ball sold are 43.
