Answer:
the cost of 3 apples and 7 oranges be £15 and £35 respectively
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us assume the apple be x
And, the oranges be y
Now according to the question
5x + 4y = £45
And,
2x + 8y = £50
Multiply by 2 in equation 1
So,
10x + 8y = £90
2x + 8y = £50
8x = £40
x = £5
And, y be
5(£5) + 4y = £45
£25 + 4y = £45
4y = 20
y = £5
So, the cost of 3 apples and 7 oranges be £15 and £35 respectively
