I need some help again
1 answer:
A = small box of oranges
B = large box of oranges
3A + 14B = 203
11A + 11B = 220
Take the second equation and divide it by 11 as both A and B have the same coefficient, which will equal:
= A + B
220 will also have to be divided by 11, giving you 20
A + B = 20
You can cancel out 3A in the first equation by subtracting 3A + 3B = 60 from it.
11B = 143
143/11 = 13
B (large box of oranges) costs $13.
Substitute 13 for B back into one of our equations, in this case 3A + 3B = 60
3A + 3*13 = 60
3A + 39 = 60
3A = 21
A = 7
Thus:
A small box of oranges costs $7, and a large box of oranges costs $13.
Hope this helped! (please brainliest)

Answer:
Undefined
Step-by-step explanation:
has a slope of
, since it is a horizontal line. The only types of lines that are perpendicular to horizontal lines are vertical lines, which are usually in the form
(where
is any real number). Vertical lines have an undefined slope, so the answer is undefined. Hope this helps!
