I'm guessing just to show that you did your work to get the answer.
In this item we are given with the equation, 2x - y = 3. The equation contains two variables, x and y. We assume in this item that the value of x is independent of the value of y; however, y values depends on the given values of x. In parametric form, the equation would take the form,
f(x) = y = ax + b
where a is the numerical coefficient of x and b is constant. Transforming the given equation to this form,
f(x) = y = 2x - 3
Apples are $0.68 and peaches are $0.42.
To find these values, we need to write and solve the following system of equations.
6x + 9y = 7.86
4x + 5y = 4.82
Multiply the first equation by 2 and the second by -3.
12x + 18y = 15.72
-12x - 15y = 14.46
Add the equations together.
3y = 1.26
y = 0.42
Sub in 0.72 and solve for x in either equation and you will get x = 0.68.
Im not sure but i think the answer is about 266.6
