Answer: 605 bottles of wine sell for $5,445
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, we have to write an equation for each case
465 a + 605w =10050
465a+586w=9882
Where “a” is the price of a bottle of apple cider, and “w”is the price of a bottle of wine.
Solving for a in the first equation
465 a + 605w =10050
465a =10050-605w
a= (10050-605w)/465
a= 21.61-1.30w
Replacing "a" in the second equation
465 ( 21.61-1.30w) +586w=9882
10048.65 -604.5w +586w=9882
-604.5w+586w =9882-10048.65
-18.5w=-166.65
w= -166.65/-18.5
w= 9
Each bottle of wine sells for $9,
605 bottles:
605x9 = $5,445
