Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of $50 jackets that were sold, and let y represent how many $30 jackets were sold.

50x + 30y = 2360

y = x + 12

Solve by substitution by substituting the second equation into the first one. Then, solve for x:

50x + 30y = 2360

50x + 30(x + 12) = 2360

50x + 30x + 360 = 2360

80x + 360 = 2360

80x = 2000

x = 25

So, 25 $50 jackets were sold.
