Answer:

amount of salad by each person  = 0.21  pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Lilian bought 2.52 pounds of  tomatoes and 1.26 pounds of lettuce to make salad for 18 people.  That means the combined weight in pounds of tomatoes and lettuce is the weight of the salad.

The weight of the salad = 2.52 + 1.26

The weight of the salad = 3.78  pounds

The total weight of the salad is 3.78 pounds . He shared the weight to 18 people and each person collected the same amount.

To find the amount each person got, we divide 3.78 by 18 people.

amount of salad by each person = 3.78/18

amount of salad by each person  = 0.21  pounds

Does anyone know how to solve a system of linear equations using elimination? I am having a hard time on how to do it for differ
Mariana [72]
1. Multiply each equation so they end up with the same coefficient

2. Subtract your second equation from the first

3. Solve for one of the variables (I tend to solve an equation that only contains 2 variables if possible. So it would be if you have one question with x and y, solve for the easier one)

4. Substitute the variable you found in the least step into one of the other equations and find a second variable.

5. Substitute both variables you found into the last equation and there you should be left with x, y, and z :))

I hope this helped sksjsk if it didn’t I could write it out to hopefully help more :)
