Answer:

20 yards in the lace ribbon and there are 30 yards on one roll of satin ribbon

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 2y = 120 (1)

2x + 4y = 160 (2)

Divide eq(2) by 2 (both sides). Keep equation (1) as is. You will get

3x + 2y = 120 (1')

x + 2y = 80 (2')

Now subtract eq(2') from eq(1'). You will get

2x = 120 - 80 = 40

x = 40/2 = 20.

Then from equation (2'),

20 + 2y = 80

2y = 80 - 20 = 60

y = 60/2 = 30
