Let the number of pants be 'x ' and
the number of skirts be ' y '.
Given ,
" The number of skirts are two less
than twice the number of pants
purchased "
y = 2x - 2 -----( 1 )
" The number of skirts is four less
than four times the number of pants
purchased "
y = 4x - 4-----( 2 )
From ( 1 ) and ( 2 ) ,
2x - 2 = 4x - 4
-2 + 4 = 4x - 2x
2 = 2x
2/2 = x
1 = x
x = 1
put x = 1 in equation ( 1 ) , we get
y = 2 × 1 - 2
y = 0
Therefore ,
The number of pants purchased =x = 1
The number of skirts purchased = y = 0
I hope this helps you.
