Answer: The cost of a chicken wrap is $10.99

The cost of one order of potatoes is $4.99.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of a chicken wrap be x

Let the cost of one order of potatoes be y.

From the question,

3x + 2y = $42.95 ...... equation i

5x + 4y = $74.91 ....... equation ii

Multiply equation i by 5

Multiply equation ii by 3

15x + 10y = $214.75 ..... equation iii

15x + 12y = $224.73 ....... equation iv

Subtract equation iv from equation iii. This will be:

-2y = -$9.98

y = $9.98/2

y = $4.99

Since 3x + 2y = $42.95

3x + 2($4.99) = $42.95

3x + $9.98 = $42.95

3x = $42.95 - $9.98

3x = $32.97

x = $32.97/3

x = $10.99

The cost of a chicken wrap is $10.99

The cost of one order of potatoes is $4.99.

Solve the system.
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

{x,y,z} = {-18,4,2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve equation [2] for the variable  x  

x = -10y + 2z + 18

Plug this in for variable  x  in equation [1]

(-10y+2z+18) + 9y + z = 20

- y + 3z = 2

Plug this in for variable  x  in equation [3]

 3•(-10y+2z+18) + 27y + 2z = 58

   - 3y + 8z = 4

Solve equation [1] for the variable  y  

 y = 3z - 2

Plug this in for variable  y  in equation [3]

  - 3•(3z-2) + 8z = 4

   - z = -2

Solve equation [3] for the variable  z  

 z = 2

By now we know this much :

 x = -10y+2z+18

   y = 3z-2

   z = 2

Use the  z  value to solve for  y  

 y = 3(2)-2 = 4

Use the  y  and  z  values to solve for  x  

 x = -10(4)+2(2)+18 = -18
