x = 3
2x + y - z = 3 → (1)
- x + y + 2z = 0 → (2)
3x + 2y + z = 9 → (3)
we require to eliminate the y and z terms from the equations
(1) + (3) : 5x + 3y = 12 → (4)
multiply (1) by 2
4x +2y - 2z = 6 → (5)
(2) + (5) : 3x + 3y = 6 → (6)
(4) - (6) : 2x = 6 ⇒ x = 3
$1.80, because 3/4 is half of 1.5, and $1.80 is one half of $3.60.
STEP 1:
Find the $ total sold. Multiply total pounds by $2 sale price per pound.
=4,913,977 pounds * $2 a pound
=$9,827,954 total sold
STEP 2:
Divide the total sold above by the 325 shrimpers.
=$9,827,954 ÷ 325
=$30,239.858
Rounded to nearest dollar:
Each of the 325 shrimpers will take home $30,240.
Hope this helps! :)
