Sagot :

Answer:

337 large buckets and 195 jumbo buckets were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

x = the number of large buckets sold
y = the number of jumbo buckets sold

x + y = 532
(2.25x + 3.75y = 1489.50) x100 = 225x + 375y =148950

(x + y = 532) x -225 =      -225x - 225y = -119700
                                       + 225x + 375y =148950

                                                       150y = 29250
                                                             y = 195

x + 195 = 532
         x = 337
