Blankets sell for $____ a piece, and hooded towels sell for $_____a piece.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Blankets sell for $29 a piece, and hooded towels sell for $23 a piece.

Step-by-step explanation:

blanket = x

towel = y

5x + 13y = 444 -> x=(444-13y)/5

23x + 13y = 966

23[(443-13y)/5] +13y = 966

x = 29

y = 23
