Let us assume that cost of each granola bar be $x and that of a cup of yogurt be $y
From person A's purchase, we get
12x + 7y = 15.5; equation A
And from person B's purchase,
6x + 11y = 11.5; equation B
Let us multiply equation B by 2 and subtracting equation A from it, we will get
12x + 22y - 12x - 7y = 23 - 15.5,
=> 15y = 7.5
or, y = 0.5
Substituting value of y in equation A, we can find x
12x + 7*0.5 = 15.5
=> x = (15.5 - 3.5)/12
or, x = 1
Therefore, cost of granola bar is $1, and that of yogurt is $0.5
Answer:
Siti's money = RM 430
David = RM 1,290
Farid = RM 280
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
Siti's money = x
David = 3x
Farid = x - 150
Total of their money = RM 2 000
x + 3x + (x - 150) = 2000
4x + x - 150 = 2000
5x = 2000 + 150
5x = 2,150
x = 2,150/5
x = RM 430
Siti's money = x
= RM 430
David = 3x
= 3(430)
= RM 1,290
Farid = x - 150
= 430 - 150
= RM 280
