From the equation that was gotten, the value of the pecan pies and the cheesecake will be $9 each.

Based on the information given, the equations to solve the question will be:

9p + 8s = 153 ..... i

2p + 6s = 72 ..... ii

Multiply equation i by 2

Multiply equation ii by 9.

18p + 16s = 306

18p + 54s = 648

Subtract the equations

38s = 342

s = 9

Since 2p + 6s = 72

2p + 6(9) = 72

2p + 54 = 72

2p = 72 - 54.

2p = 18

p = 18/2 = 9

They're both $9 each

Ariana bought 5 dozen pears at $36 per dozen . She discovered that 7 were rotten and she sold the rest at $4.50 each . Calculate
GrogVix [38]

Step-by-step explanation:

1 dozen = 12 pears

12 pears = $36

1 pear = 36/12 = $3

Total Cost of Pears = No. of pears x price of 1 pear

= (5x12) x 3

= 60 x 3

= $180

Sale of Pears = Price per pear x (Total Pears bought - Rotten Pears)

= $4.50 x (5x12-7)

= $4.50 x 53

= $238.50

Profit/Loss = Sale of Pears - Total Cost of Pears

= $238.50 - $180

= $58.50

Ariana made a profit of $58.50.
