Let, the cost of 1 piece of fudge = x
Cost of a gum = y
System of equations: 5x + 3y = 5.70
2x + 10y = 3.60
Multiply 1st equation by 2, and second by 5,
New equations: 10x + 6y = 11.40
10x + 50y = 18
Now, subtract 1st from 2nd,
44y = 6.60
y = 6.60 / 44
y = 0.15
Substitute it in second equation,
2x + 10(0.15) = 3.60
2x = 3.60 - 1.5
x = 2.10 / 2
x = 1.05
In short, Cost of a Fudge = $1.05 & Cost of a gum = $0.15
Hope this helps!
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
If something is 11 less, we are subtracting 11.
-11
We have 11 less than seven times a number x.
7x-11
The word is means equals.
7x-11=-4
Now we need to isolate the x. We add 11 to both sides.
7x=7
We divide both sides by 7.
x=1.
Have a wonderful day! :D
