Answer:
c) The equation to find the price of each shrub is $53.50 = 4 p + $17.50
The cost of 1 shrub = p = $ 9.00
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of shrubs purchased = 4
The price paid for potting soil = $17.50
The total bill of purchase = $53.50
Let us assume the cost of 1 shrub = $p
The total amount spent of 4 shrubs = 4 x ( The price of each shrub) = 4 p
TOTAL BILL = The amount paid for 4 shrubs + AMOUNT paid for SOIL
⇒ $53.50 = 4 p + $17.50
Now. solving for p, we get:
53.50 - 17.50 = 4 p
or, 3 6 = 4 p
or, p = 36/4 = 9
or, p = 9
Hence, the cost of each shrub = $9
Answer:
<h2>The easiest to solve for is x in the first equation</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the system of equation, x + 4 y = 14. and 3 x + 2 y = 12, to solve for x, we can use the elimination method of solving simultaneous equation. We need to get y first.
x + 4 y = 14............ 1 * 3
3 x + 2 y = 12 ............ 2 * 1
Lets eliminate x first. Multiply equation 1 by 3 and subtract from equation 2.
3x + 12 y = 42.
3 x + 2 y = 12
Taking the diffrence;
12-2y =42 - 12
10y = 30
y = 3
From equation 1, x = 14-4y
x = 14-4(3)
x = 14-12
x = 2
It can be seen that the easiest way to get the value of x is by using the first equation and we are able to do the substitute easily <u>because the variable x has no coefficient in equation 1 compare to equation 2 </u>as such it will be easier to make the substitute for x in the first equation.
