Answer:

number of baskets of strawberries in each package = 21

number of baskets of raspberries in each package = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number of baskets of strawberries in each package.

Let y = number of baskets of raspberries in each package.

Baskets of strawberries worth $7 apiece, and baskets of raspberries, worth $11 apiece. The cost of the each package is $246. This means

7x + 11y = 246 - - - - - - - - -1

The owner wants each package to include 30 baskets total. This means

x + y = 30

Put x = 30 - y in equation 1

7(30-y) + 11y = 246

210 - 7y + 11y = 246

-7y + 11y = 246 - 210

4y = 36

y = 36/4 = 9

x = 30-y = 30-9

= 21

Sara has $1.30 less than double what Billy does. Sara has $53.72. How much money does Billy have?​
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

Billy has $27.51

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's set up an equation to solve this problem.

Assign a variable to Billy's amount. Let's make it x.

Then we just interpret the problem and solve:

2x - 1.30 = 53.72

     +1.30    +1.30

----------------------------

2x = 55.02

(Divide by 2 on both sides)

----------------------------

x = $27.51

2x = Billy's amount doubled

2x - 1.30 = Taking away 1.30 from double Billy's amount

53.72 = Sara's amount
