Question

A business with two locations buys seven large delivery trucks and five small delivery trucks. Location A receives three large trucks and two small trucks for a total cost of $270,000. Location B receives four large trucks and three small trucks for a total cost of $375,000. What is the cost of each type of truck?

Answer 1

Answer:

cost of large delivery truck = $60,000

cost of small delivery truck = $45,000

Step-by-step explanation:

let,

the cost of large delivery truck = 'x'

the cost of small delivery truck = 'y'

Now, according to the question,

3x + 2y = 270000

4x + 3y = 375000

By solving the above 2 equation , we get;

x = 60000

y = 45000
