Answer:

0.8x + 3y = 10

0.85x + 2.50y = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Spending at first store :

Cost of Banana = 80 cent per pound = 0.80

Cost of apple = $3 per pound

Total amount spent = $10

Pounds of banana = x

Pounds of apple = y

0.8x + 3y = 10 - - - (1)

Spending at second store :

Cost of Banana = 80 cent per pound = 0.85

Cost of apple = $2.50 per pound

Total amount spent = $12

Pounds of banana = x

Pounds of apple = y

0.85x + 2.50y = 12 - - - - (2)
