Step-by-step explanation:

Let c and w represent the per-picture cost of the class picture and a wallet-size picture, respectively. The two packages can be described by ...

  c +10w = 19

  2c +15w = 31

Subtracting the second equation from twice the first, we get ...

  2(c +10w) -(2c +15w) = 2(19) -31

  5w = 7

  w = 1.40

Substituting into the first equation, we can find the cost of a class picture.

  c + 10(1.40) = 19

  c = 5 . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 14

A class picture costs $5; a wallet-size picture costs $1.40.
