Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
1 x 5 = 5
5 x 5 = 25

Answer: A cherry pie costs 9 and an apple pie cost 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Let an apple pie be represented by a
Let an cherry pie be represented by c
Jennifer sold 12 cherry pies and 3 apple pies for a total of 144. This can be written as:
12c + 3a= 144
Jacob sold 2 cherry pies and 9 apple pies for a total for 126. This can be written as:
2c + 9a = 126
12c + 3a= 144 ............. i
2c + 9a = 126 ........... ii
Multiply equation i by 2
Multiply equation ii by 12
24c + 6a = 288 ........ iii
24c + 108a = 1512 ...... iv
Subtract iv from iii
-102a = -1224
a = 1224/102
a = 12
An apple pie costs 12
From equation i
12c + 3a= 144
12c + (3×12) = 144
12c + 36 = 144
12c = 144 - 36
12c = 108
c = 108/12
c = 9
A cherry pie costs 9
