Answer:

One orange costs $1.45.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are two variables, you have to set up a 2 variable equation.

Let's let a = apples and o = oranges.

So, we can set up this problem as:

5a + 4o = 11.80

1a  + 6o = 9.90

You can solve a 2-variable equation using either elimination or substitution. Here, I think it's easier to use substitution. To do that we have to substitute one variable with an equation that uses only the other so that we only have one variable.

We can manipulate our second equation so that it is:

a = 9.90 - 6o

Then, we can plug this in for a in the first equation. So,

5 (9.90 - 6o) + 4o = 11.80

49.5 -30o +4o = 11.80  (Distribute the 5)

49.5 - 26o = 11.80  (Combine like terms)

-26o = -37.7 (Subtract 49.5 from both sides)

o = 1.45 (Divide by -26)

o = 1.45

So, an orange costs $1.45.

30x = (60)(40)

30x = 240                 Multiply 60 and 40

x = 8                          Divide 30 from both sides
