    70 standard boxes, 40 deluxe boxes

    Step-by-step explanation:

    standard: x

    deluxe: y

    x + y = 110

    7x + 11y = 930

    Multiply the first equation by 7 and subtract.

    7x + 7y = 770

    - (7x + 11y = 930)

    You get - 4y = - 160

    y = 40

    Substitute y into the first equation.

    x + 40 = 110

    x = 70
