The drama club is selling short-sleeved shirts for $5 each, and long-sleeved shirts for $10 each. They hope to sell all of the shirts they ordered, to earn a total of $1,750. After the first week of the fundraiser, they sold StartFraction one-third EndFraction of the short-sleeved shirts and StartFraction one-half EndFraction of the long-sleeved shirts, for a total of 100 shirts. How many short-sleeved shirts were ordered?

How many long-sleeved shirts were ordered?

Step-by-step explanation:

Let S and L represent the numbers of short- and long-sleeved shirts ordered.

The expected earnings were ...

  5S +10L = 1750

The number sold was ...

  (1/3)S + (1/2)L = 100

We can multiply the first equation by 1/5 and the second equation by 6 to put the equations into standard form:

Subtracting the second equation from twice the first gives ...

  2(S +2L) -(2S +3L) = 2(350) -(600)

  L = 100 . . . . . . simplify

  2S +3(100) = 600

  S = 150

150 short-sleeved and 100 long-sleeved shirts were ordered.
