Bananas cost: $0.25
Apples cost: $0.30
4b+5a=2.50
10b+3a=3.40
You multiply the equations by the variables so they can cancel out. For example the first one by 3 and the second by 5 so you have
12b+15a=7.50
50b+15a=17
Subtract them and end up with
-38b=-9.5
solve: b=0.25, substitute b in any equation and get a=0.30

Answer:
<em>8cm</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given three pieces of string of length 16 cm, 56 cm and 24 cm respectively. To get the the greatest length that each piece of string can be if she wants to cut the three lengths of string into smaller pieces such that all the pieces are of equal length, with no string left over, we will have to find the greatest common factor for the three lengths
16 = 2 * 8
56 = 7 * 8
24 = 3 * 8
Since 8 is common to all the factors, hence the greatest common factor is 8.
<em>Hence the greatest length that each piece of string can be, in cm is 8cm</em>
B = (2x+3)(4x^2-6x+9)-2(4^3-1)
B = 8x^3-99

If the point of the assignment is to get the most amount of cheese per dollar the answer is a.
You just divide the price with the number of ounces you buy and that will give you the price per ounce.
a = 5/(4*5) = $0.25 per ounce
b = 3.24/12 = $0.27 per ounce
c = 4.19/16 = 0.261875
therefore a is the best bang for the buck
