Answer:

2 x plus 3 y equals 26. X plus 4 y equals 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of tiles, = x

Number of pints of paint, = y

Store 1:

Cost per tile = $2 ; cost per pint = $3 ; total cost = $26

Store 2 :

Cost per tile = $1 ; cost per pint = $4 ; total cost = $18

System of equation:

2x + 3y = 26 - - - (1)

x + 4y = 18 - - - - - (2)
