Answer:Let t = cost per pound of turkey

Let h = cost per pound of ham

 

4t + 2h = 30

t = h - 1.5

 

substitute h-1.5 in place of t in 1st equation

 

4(h-1.5) + 2h = 30

4h - 6 + 2h = 30

6h - 6 = 30

6h = 36

h = 6

 

t = h-1.5 = 4.5

 

1 pound of turkey costs $4.50

1 pound of ham costs    $6.00

                                ----------

cost of 1 pound each  $10.50
