Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

1 litro de leche cuesta 2.5

1 kg de jamón serrano cuesta 35

1 litro de aceite de oliva cuesta 7,5

Step-by-step explanation:

Pregunta correcta completa

Un cliente de un supermercado ha pagado un total de 240 por 16 litros de leche,4kg de hamon serrano y 8 litros de aceite de oliva. Sabiendo que 1 litro de aceite cuesta el tripe de 1 litro de leche; que 1kg de jamon cuesta igual que el cliente tendria que pagar si hubiera comprado 5 litros de leche y 3 litros de aceite de oliva. Calcule el precio de cada artículo.

Solución

Deje que el precio de un litro de leche, un kilogramo de jamón serrano y un litro de aceite de oliva sea x, y y z respectivamente.

16 litros de leche, 4 kg de hamon serrano y 8 litros de aceite de oliva cuestan 240

16x + 4y + 8z = 240 (ecuación 1)

1 litro de aceite cuesta el triple de 1 litro de leche

z = 3x (ecuación 2)

Y ese 1 kg de jamón cuesta lo mismo que el cliente tendría que pagar si hubiera comprado 5 litros de leche y 3 litros de aceite de oliva.

y = 5x + 3z (ecuación 3)

Sustituyendo las ecuaciones 2 y 3 en la ecuación 1

16x + 4(5x + 3z) + 8(3x) = 240

16x + 20x + 12z + 24x = 240

Recordemos que z = 3x

36x + 12(3x) + 24x = 240

36x + 36x + 24x = 240

96x = 240

x = (240/96) = 2.5

z = 3x = 3 × 2.5 = 7.5

y = 5x + 3z = (5×2.5) + (3×7.5) = 35

English Translation

A supermarket customer has paid a total of 240 for 16 liters of milk, 4kg of hamon serrano and 8 liters of olive oil. Knowing that 1 liter of oil costs the tripe of 1 liter of milk; t that 1kg of ham costs the same as the customer would have to pay if he had bought 5 liters of milk and 3 liters of olive oil. Calculate the price of each item.

Solution

Let the price of a liter of milk, a kilogram of Serrano ham and a liter of olive oil be x, y and z respectively.

16 liters of milk, 4kg of hamon serrano and 8 liters of olive oil cost 240

16x + 4y + 8z = 240 (eqn 1)

1 liter of oil costs the triple of 1 liter of milk

z = 3x (eqn 2)

And that 1kg of ham costs the same as the customer would have to pay if he had bought 5 liters of milk and 3 liters of olive oil

y = 5x + 3z (eqn 3)

Substituting eqn 2 and 3 into eqn 1

16x + 4(5x + 3z) + 8(3x) = 240

16x + 20x + 12z + 24x = 240

Recall that z = 3x

36x + 12(3x) + 24x = 240

36x + 36x + 24x = 240

96x = 240

x = (240/96) = 2.5

z = 3x = 3 × 2.5 = 7.5

y = 5x + 3z = (5×2.5) + (3×7.5) = 35

1 liter of milk costs 2.5

1 kg of Serrano ham costs 35

1 liter of olive oil costs 7.5

Hope this Helps!!!

Phoebe, Andy and Polly share £270.
Stella [2.4K]
*Given
Money of Phoebe            - 3 times as much as Andy
Money of Andy                - 2 times as much as Polly
Total money of Phoebe,  - <span>£270
</span>    Andy and Polly

*Solution

Let
B - Phoebe's money
A - Andy's money
L - Polly's money

1. The money of the Phoebe, Andy, and Polly, when added together would total <span>£270. Thus, 
</span>
                  B + A + L  = <span>£270                     (EQUATION 1)

2. Phoebe has three times as much money as Andy and this is expressed as
  
                  B = 3A

3. Andy has twice as much money as Polly and this is expressed as

                  A = 2L</span>                           (EQUATION 2)
<span>
4. This means that Phoebe has ____ as much money as Polly, 

                 B = 3A
                 B = 3 x (2L)
                 B = 6L                            </span>(EQUATION 3)<span>

This step allows us to eliminate the variables B and A in EQUATION 1 by expressing the equation in terms of Polly's money only. 

5. Substituting B with 6L, and A with 2L, EQUATION 1 becomes, 

                  6L + 2L + L = </span><span>£270
</span>                                9L = <span>£270
</span>                                  L = <span>£30

So, Polly has </span><span>£30. 

6. Substituting L into EQUATIONS 2 and 3 would give us the values for Andy's money and Phoebe's money, respectively. 
</span>
                  A = 2L                           
                  A = 2(£30)
                  A = £60

Andy has £60

                  B = 6L                         
                  B = 6(£30)
                  B = £180

Phoebe has £180

Therefore, Polly's money is £30, Andy's is £60, and Phoebe's is £180.
