The probability would be 9/12 or 3/4 in the lowest form
Answer:
Let's call:
f = price of 1 cup of dried fruit
a = price of 1 cup of almonds
In order to build the linear system, you need to consider that the total price of a bag is given by the sum of the price of cups times the number of cups in each bag, therefore:
Solve for a in first equation:
a = (6 - 3f) / 4
Then substitute in the second equation:
41/2 f + 6 · (6 - 3f) / 4 = 9
41/2 f + 9 - 9/2 f = 9
16 f = 0
f = 0
Now, substitute this value in the formula found for a:
a = (6 - 3·0) / 4
= 3/2 = 1.5
Hence, the cups of dried fruit are free and 1 cup of almond costs 1.5$
Step-by-step explanation:
X=skirt
y=sweater
z=shoes
x+y+z=165
y=8/7x
z=x+11
plug it in
x+(8/7x)+(x+11)=165
2x+8/7x=154
22/7x=154
x=49
y=56
z=60
a skirt cost $49, a sweater cost $56, and a pair of shoes cost $60
