Answer:
So a bag of chip costs $2.39
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = cost of a bag of chip
Let y = cost of a box of pretzel
Micheal buys two bags of chips and three boxes of pretzels for $5.13
This means
2x + 3y = 5.13 - - - - - - - - - -1
He then buys another bag of chips and 2 boxes of pretzels for $3.09
This means
x + 2y = 3.09 - - - - - - - - - - - -2
Solving equation 1 and equation 2 simultaneously and using the elimination method,
Multiply equation 1 by 1 and equation 2 by 2
2x + 3y = 5.13
2x + 6y = 6.18
Subtracting,
-3y = -1.05
y = -1.05/-3= $0.35
Put y= 0.35 in equation, x + 2y = 3.09
x + 2(0.35)= 3.09
x + 0.7= 3.09
x = 3.09-0.7 = $ 2.39
So a bag of chip costs $2.39
She has $5.33 left
$9.00
-$3.67

$5.33
Answer:
Average: 26.223529411764706 (Please round to the place value necessary since it does not say in the question.)
Step-by-step explanation:
We first find the number of items sold: 170
Then we find the total cost: 4458
We then divide 4458 by 170
We end up with the answer 26.223529411764706. (Please round to the place value necessary since it does not say in the question.)
