The cost of each bag of soil is $ 16.25 and the cost of each bag of fertilizer is $ 12.99.

<h3>What is the linear system?</h3>

A linear system is one in which the parameter in the equation has a degree of one. It might have one, two, or even more variables.

Mr. Ellis has started a vegetable garden.

He bought 15 bags of soil and 3 bags of fertilizer for 282.72.

He realized he did not have enough supplies so he bought another 5 bags of soil and 2 bags of fertilizer for 107.23.

Let the cost of each bag of soil be x and the cost of a bag of fertilizer be y.

Then we have the linear equations,

15x + 3y = 282.72

5x + 2y = 107.23

On solving the equations 1 and 2, we have

x = 16.25 and y = 12.99

The cost of each bag of soil is $ 16.25 and the cost of each bag of fertilizer is $ 12.99.

More about the linear system link is given below.

How do I describe the real zeroes of this function using Descartes's Rule of Signs?
Serhud [2]
The number of positive roots is the number of changes of signs there are, then decrease by 2 each time and stop when you get to 1 or 0

negative roots, sub every x with -x and reevaluate, count change of signs
decrease by 2 each time and stop when you get to 1 or 0

y=+2x⁵-x⁴-2x³+4x²+x-2
+,-,-,+,+,-
 1    2  3

3 or 1 positive roots

replace x with -x ( baically flip all signs of odd powerd numbers)

y=-2x⁵-x⁴+2x³+4x²-x-2
   -,-,+,+,-,-
     1    2

2 or 0 negative roots



3 or 1 positive roots
2 or 0 negative roots
