Answer provided by our tutors

l = the number of CDs she sold last week

t = the number of CDs she sold this week


last week she sold 6 more than 3 times the number of CDS that she sold this week


l = 6 + 3t


Ms. Kitts sold a total of 110 CDs over the 2 weeks


l + t = 110


by solving the system of equations


l = 6 + 3t

l + t = 110


we find


l = 84 CDs


t = 26 CDs
