Complete question:

5B+4R=28

The above equation is true if Amit buys B pounds of blueberries and R pounds of raspberries at a farm where blueberries cost $5.50 per pound and raspberries cost $4.00 per pound. According to the equation, how much does Amit spend in total on both types of berries?

Answer:

In total Amits spends $28 in both types of berries.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is

5B+4R=28

B represent the weight in pounds of the blueberries and R represent the weight in pounds of the raspberries.

B =  weight in pounds of blueberries

R = weight in pounds of raspberries

The price per pound of blue berries is $5.50. The amount of blueberries he takes depending on the number of pounds Amit buys which is equals to 5B.

Cost of blueberries depending on the number of pounds = 5.5B

The price per pound of the blue berries is $4.00 .The cost of raspberries he takes depend on the number of pounds Amit buys which is equal to 4R.

Cost of raspberries depending on the number of pounds = 4R

The total cost of both blueberries and raspberries depending on the number of pounds is equals to 5B+4R=28

Total cost

5B+4R=28

In total Amits spends $28 in both types of berries.

Answer:

$285

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Blueberries:</u>

B = number of pounds of blueberries bought

$5.50 = price of blueberries per pound

$5.50B = total price of B pounds of blueberries

<u>Blueberries:</u>

R = number of pounds of raspberries bought

$4 = price of raspberries per pound

$4R = total price of R pounds of raspberries

<u>Total:</u>

$5.5B + $4R

Since 5.5B+4R=285, then Amit spends in total on both types of berries $285

X = 3
y = -1 

get the x or y by itself first (second eq. is easier)
So, x + 2y = 1
          -2y     -2y
Now we get: 
x = -2y +1 Plug it into the other equation.

2x + 3y = 3
2(-2y +1) + 3y = 3
-4y + 2 + 3y = 3
-1y +2 = 3
+1y -3    -3  +1 y

y = -1 (plug into either eq to get x)

<span>x + 2y = 1
</span>x+2(-1) = 1
x-2=1
 +2  +2

x = 3
