Yes I think it really is the correct answer
Answer:
a= Apple = 3
b= Banana =5
v= Lollypop=1
Step-by-step explanation:
36 is divided into 2 giving us 18
Let apple=a
Banana=b
Lollypop=c
In the first half
An apple + 3 bananas=18
a+3b=18 (1)
Second half is further divided into 2
That is,
18÷2=9
First half of the second half
3apples=9
3a=9 (2)
Second half of the second half
1 apple + 1 banana + 1 lollypop=9
a+b+c=9 (3)
a+3b=18 (1)
3a=9 (2)
a+b+c=9 (3)
From (2)
3a=9
Divide both sides by 3
a=9/3
a=3
Substitute a=3 into 1
a+3b=18
3+3b=18
3b=18-3
3b=15
Divide both sides by 3
b=15/3
=5
b=5
Substitute the value of a and b into (3)
a+b+c=9
3+5+c=9
8+c=9
c=9-8
c=1
Therefore,
a= Apple = 3
b= Banana =5
v= Lollypop=1
If you plug in the x and y of choice b you would see that it does not equal 18.
6(3) + 3(-1) = 18
18 + (-3) = 15
