<span>6 pounds of strawberries for x pounds and 4 pounds of apples for y pounds. = $18.90.
6x + 4y = 18.90
Then, you add 3 more pounds of each fruit which equals $10.17.
3x + 3y = 10.17
Then you multiply by -2 which is (-6x) - 6y = -20.34. After that, you add that (read carefully) you would do this. (-6x) + 6x - 6y + 4y = -20.34 + 28.90.
-2y = -1.44 divided by -2.
Y = -1.44/-2
Y = $0.72 per pound of apples.</span><span>Now, plus in the value of Y in equation 2.
3x + 3y = 10.17
3x + 3 * 0.72 = 10.17.
3x + 2.16 = 10.17
-2.16
3x = 10.17 - 2.16
3x = 8.06 /3
Int total, X = $2.68 per pound of strawberry. Hope this helps just read it carefully. </span>

Answer:
C. 161.459 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
In feet, the dimensions of the pool are ...
(5 m)(3.28084 ft/m) = 16.4042 ft
(3 m)(3.28084 ft/m) = 9.84252 ft
Then the area of the pool is ...
(16.4042 ft)(9.84252 ft) = 161.458666584 square feet
about 161.459 square feet
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
If you consider that a square meter is slightly less than 11 square feet, the pool area can be estimated to be (5 m)(3 m)(11 ft²/m²) = 165 ft². This is close enough to point you to the correct answer choice.
