Answer:
Potato price = $1.5 / pound ; Carrot price = $1.75 / pound
Step-by-step explanation:
Let price of carrot per pound = c
Let price of potatoes per pound = p
Given :
2c + 3p = 8 (eqtn A)
4c + 4p = 13 (eqtn B)
Multiplying eqtn A by 2 ;
4c + 6p = 16
4c = 16 - 6p (eqtn Y)
By eqtn B ;
4c = 13 - 4p (eqtn Z)
By eqtn Y & Z ;
16 - 6p = 13 - 4p
16 - 13 = - 4p + 6p
3 = 2p
p = 3 /2
p = 1.5 [Potato price]
Putting p value in eqtn A
2c + 3 (1.5) = 8
2c + 4.5 = 8
2c = 8 - 4.5
2c = 3.5
c = 3.5 / 2
c = 1.75 [Carrot Price]
21, 18 1/2, 6.2, 1.75, -1/4, -1/2, -4,-5.9
X = 5 or x = 13.
If you need details, please ask!
105,000 would be the correct answer to your problem.
(0,0) and (6,0)
First we subtract 18x from both sides
3x²-18x=0
Factor out a 3x
3x(x-6)=0
This means that x is either 0 or 6
