    Fetures are x and y

    x+y=12

    23.99x+120.84y=675.28

    x+y=12

    multiply by - 23.99 and add to other equation

    -23.99x-23.99y=-287.88

    23.99x+120.84y=675.28 +

    0x+96.85y=387.4

    96.85y=387.4

    divde both sides by 96.85

    y=4

    sub back

    x+y=12

    x+4=12

    minus 4

    x=8

    8 of the features costing $23.99

    4 of the features costing $120.84
