Juan bought 5 cupcakes and 3 bearclaws for 45$. Lily bought 4 of the same cupcakes and 6 of the same bearclaws for 72$. What is
the price of each item?
1 answer:
Answer:
Cup cakes= $3
Bear claws = $10
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the orice of cupcakes be x and the price of bear claws be y
5x+ 3y= 45
4x + 6y= 72
Multiply equation 1 by 4 and equation 2 by 5
20x + 12y= 180
20x + 30y= 360
-18y= -180
y= 10
Substitute 10 for y in equation 1
5x + 3(10)= 45
5x + 30= 45
5x = 45-30
5x= 15
x= 15/5
= 3
Hence the price of cup cakes is 3 and bear claws is $10

Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
x + 22 is equal to the sum of 5x - 6 and 4.
<h3>Solve for x</h3>
The value of x is 6.
X = length of shortest side
Therefore the remaining sides will be x +2 and x + 7
x + x + 2 + x +7 = 45
3x + 9 = 45
3x = 36
x = 12
x + 2 = 14
x + 7 = 19
The sides are 12, 14, and 19 cm. long. Hope this helped!
