Answer:
x=0 y=1
Step-by-step explanation:
if x equals 0 then itll automatically bew diferent
From the information given, the original price per pound was increased by $ 0.75
Let the original price be x, so the new price is x + 0.75
Sam bought 3 pounds of apples at new price and it cost him 5.88
so we form an equation:
3 (x + 0.75) = 5.88
3x + 2.25 = 5.88
3x = 5.88 - 2.25
3x = 3.63
x = 3.63 / 3
x = 1.21
Therefore the original price per pound is 1.21 dollars
He can go 1 1/2 days before they are all gone
Answer:
do you still need help on tge questio ?
Answer:
ok so we have to make it so we can get rid of one of the varibles by adding or subtracting
so lets multiply the first one by 4
120x+16y=4160
minus the second one so
108x=2160
divide by 108
x=20
then we just plug in
12(20)+16y=2000
240+16y=2000
-240
16y=1760
divide by 16
y=110
(20,110)
Hope This Helps!!!
