Let x = cost of mango
y = c of apples 
<span>8x+3y=18.
3x+5y=14.5 </span>

<span> </span>
<span>24x+9y=54
24x+40y=116
multiplying them with 3 and 8 resectively. </span>
<span>subtract one from the other we get </span>
<span>40y-9y=116-54 </span>
<span>31y=62 </span>
<span>y=2.
cost of apple=2$  per apple
</span><span>8x+3y=18,
 8x+3(2)=18.
8x=12. x=12/8=1.5 </span>

Donata bought 3 Apples and 5 Pomegranites at the local supermarket for a total of $16.50 Meaghan bought 6 Apples and 11 Pomegran
Sati [7]

Answer: the cost of one apple is $1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of one apple.

Let y represent the cost of one Pomegranate.

Donata bought 3 Apples and 5 Pomegranates at the local supermarket for a total of $16.50. This means that

3x + 5y = 16.5 - - - - - - - - - - - - -1

Meaghan bought 6 Apples and 11 Pomegranates at the same store for a total of $35.70. This means that

6x + 11y = 35.7- - - - - - - - - - - - -2

Multiplying equation 1 by 2 and equation 2 by 1, it becomes

6x + 10y = 33

6x + 11y = 35.7

Subtracting, it becomes

- y = - 2.7

y = 2.7

Substituting y = 2.7 into equation 1, it becomes

3x + 5 × 2.7 = 16.5

3x + 13.5 = 16.5

3x = 16.5 - 13.5 = 3

x = 3/3 = 1
