    Let x and y be the number of pounds of apples and peaches, respectively. With this representation, two equations are generated.

    (1) x + y = 165

    (2) 1.75x + 2.50y = 337.50

    Simultaneously solving for the values of x and y gives an answer of x = 100 and y = 65. Thus, Mo sold 65 pounds of peaches.
