Answer:

$62.9 and $98.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of tennis shoe be x

Since a jacket cost $35.50 more than a pair of tennis shoe,

Then cost of jacket would be

= $35.50 + x

Total cost of both items would be;

x + $35.50 + x = $161.30

2x = $161.30 - $35.50

2x = $125.8

x = $62.9

Therefore, cost of pair of tennis shoe is $62.9

Jacket cost would now be

= $35.5 + x

= $35.5 + $62.9

= $98.4
