Answer:

6 pounds of dried apples and 14 pounds of dried apricots

Explanation:

A = dried apples

B = dried apricots

1.3A + 1.6B = 1.51 x 20 = 30.2

A + B = 20

A = 20 - B

Replace A:

1.3(20 - B) + 1.6B = 30.2

26 - 1.3B + 1.6B = 30.2

0.3B = 30.2 - 26 = 4.2

B = 4.2 / 0.3 = 14

A = 6

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer: False

Explanation:

Total Revenue is the total amount that is received in return on sales of goods and services.

It is calculated as Price multiply by Quantity.

If the price of a product increases the revenue would also increase ceteris paribus( all things being equal). If the price of a product was $10 and 4 units were purchased Total revenue would be $40 and if price increases to $20 and 4 units were still purchased total revenue would be $80 assuming that we’re not taking into consideration any other factor like elasticity or type of good.

If price increases revenue increases too.
