Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

erasers=e  

pencils=p

3e+5p=7.55   ...(1)

6e+12p=17.40

divide by 2

3e+6p=8.70  ...(2)

(2)-(1) gives

p=8.70-7.55=1.15

from (1)

3e+5(1.15)=7.55

3e+5.75=7.55

3e=7.55-5.75

3e=1.80

e=1.80/3=0.60

cost of 1 eraser=$0.60

cost of 1 pencil =$1.15

How would I solve this?
Taya2010 [7]
All you have to do is insert whatever they give you into <em>x. </em>So for example they give you f(2) all you do is is insert the two where x is.
