Answer:
B. 3.19b + 4.59m = 137.24
3.49b + 4.39m = $140.04
Step-by-step explanation:
A B
Bread $3.19 $3.49
Milk $4.59 $4.39
Sue paid $137.24 in supermarket A
Sue paid $140.04 in supermarket B
Let
Price of bread A=$3.19
Price of bread B=$3.49
Price of milk A=$4.59
Price of milk B=$4.39
Quantity of Bread=b
Quantity of Milk=m
Pb=price of bread
Pm=price of milk
Qb=Quantity of bread
Qm=Quantity of milk
For each supermarket
Supermarket A Equation
PbQb + PmQm =$137.24
3.19b+ 4.59m = 137.24
Supermarket B Equation
PbQb + PmQm=$140.04
3.49b + 4.39m = $140.04
Combining both equations
3.19b + 4.59m = 137.24
3.49b + 4.39m = $140.04
