Each pound of squash cost $0.49 while each pound of eggplant cost $0.69.
Let x represent the cost of each pound of squash and y represent the cost of each pound of eggplant.
3 pounds of squash and 2 pounds of eggplants cost $2.85. Hence:
3x + 2y = 2.85 (1)
4 pounds of squash and 5 pounds of eggplants cost $5.41. Hence:
4x + 5y = 5.41 (2)
Solving equation 1 and 2 simultaneously gives:
x = 0.49, y = 0.69
Each pound of squash cost $0.49 while each pound of eggplant cost $0.69.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The expected value is the probability of an event multiplied by the number of times the event happens. And if there is more than 1 event, the expected value is the sum of those.
There are 52 cards in a deck.
There are 12 face cards in a deck. (gain 10)
There are 4 ace in a deck. (gain 20)
Any other card is 36 of them. (lose 5)
The probability of face card is 12/52
The probability of ace is 4/52
The probability of any other card is 36/52
Thus the expected values is:
(12/52)(10) + (4/52)(20) + (36/52)(-5) = $0.38
Answer:
the correct answer is x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
10x²+2x-8=0
=>10x²+10x-8x-8=0
=>10x(x+1)-8(x+1)=0
=>(10x-8)(x+1)=0
=>2(5x-4)(x+1)=0
