Answer:
y= 23
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for (y
)
by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.
7y - 6y - 10 = 13
Things we know:
Six total pots = # of 10" + # of 8"
$78 total = cost of 10" + cost of 8"
So:
6 = x +y
and
78 = x*(cost of x) + y * (cost of y)
78 = x*12 + y*15
We need:
x+y=6 AND 12x+15y=78
So our answer can only be B.
The answer is 55.75! Trust me I took a test on this and its the right one.
