A store manager buys 8 T-Shirts and 5 hats for $220. The next day, the manager buys 5 T-shirts and 1 hat for $112. Select the system of equations that models the situation.

• 8t + 5h = 220

  t + 5h = 112

• 13(t − h) = 220

  6(t − h) = 112

• 8t + 5h = 220

  5t + h = 112

Which of the following gives a valid reason for using the given solution method to solve the system of equations shown?

Equation I: 4x − 5y = 4

Equation II: 2x + 3y = 2

• Elimination; a coefficient in Equation I is an integer multiple of a coefficient in Equation II.

• Elimination; a coefficient in Equation II is an integer multiple of a coefficient in Equation I.

• Substitution; equation I can be solved for x in one step by dividing both

  sides by 4.

• Substitution; equation II can be solved for x in one step by subtracting 3y

  from both sides.
