Define the variables and write a system of equations to represent the given situation do not solve Jason spent a total of $131 on shirts. Dress shirts cost $28 dollars and T-shirts cost $15 dollars. If he brought 7 shirts how many of each kind did he buy?

 28x  + 15y = 131   and x + y =  7   where x is the number of Dress shirt and y is the number of T-shirt.

Step-by-step explanation:

We will represent the number of Dress shirt he bought by x and we will represent the number of T-shirt he bought by y.

We know that he spent 131 so the cost of each dress shirt plus the cost of each T-shirt has to equal  131.  Also, he bought 7 total shirts so x plus y has to equal 7.

28x  + 15y = 131  

x + y =  7

Note: it says don't solve so I didn't solve but if you want to solve use these equations.
