Answer:
<h2>$36.00</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
$12.00 - the total cost of 4 of equally priced gloves
$12.00 : 4 = $3.00 - the cost of 1 glove
The cost per glove is increased by $1.00. Therefore new cost of 1 glove is
$3.00 + $1.00 = $4.00
The total cost of 9 of gloves at the new price:
9 × $4.00 = $36.00
1(Identifying):
Tomatoes-x--$3 per lb
Mushrooms- 1/3 x-- $10 per lb
Peaches- x+1-- $6 per lb
2(Equation):
3x+6(x+1)+1/3x*10=80
3x+6x+6+10/3 x=80
12 1/3 x= 74
x=74÷(12+1/3)
Step 3(Final Equations):
74*3/37=6=tomatoes
Meaning...
6+1=7=Peaches
6/3=2= mushrooms
Answer:
7 lb of peaches, 6 lb of tomatoes, and 2 lb of mushrooms
9.5000032 is one such number
