Question

Number 7 please! I need help badly

Answer 1

Answer:

A computer costs $225 and a printer $150.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c be the cost of a computer and p the cost of a printer, then:

3c + p   = 825

4c + 2p = 1200

Multiply the first equation by -2:

-6c - 2p = -1650

Add this to the second equation:

-2c = -450

c = 225.

Now substitute  c = 225 in the first equation:

3*225 + p = 825

p = 825 - 675 =  150.
