Answer:
pizza: $4, coke: $3, chips: $2
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets make the price of a pizza=p a coke= k and a bag of chips=c
then we have the following equations
p+k+c=9
p+2k=10
2p+2c=12
Because p is common in all the equations we shall make it the subject of each equation.
p=9-(k+c)...........i
p=10-2k..............ii
p=6-c...................iii
We then equate i and iii
9-(k+c)=6-c
9-k-c=6-c
putting like terms together we get:
9-6=-c+c+k
1 coke, k=$3
replacing this value in equation ii
we get p=10-2(3)
p=10-6= 4
1 pizza, p=$4
replacing this value in equation iii
4=6-c
c=6-4
=2
a bag of chips, c=$2
Thus, a pizza, a coke and a bag of chips= pizza: $4, coke: $3, chips: $2
Answer:
The price of fertilizer is $27.5 and potting soil is $5
Step-by-step explanation:
I think that you are asking for the price of each bag of fertilizer and potting soil. And here is my answer:
Given the system of linear:
3s + 4f = 125 <=> f = 31.25 -3/4s (1)
4s + 2f = 75 <=> f = 37.5 -2s (2)
Take (1) -(2) we have:
f -f = 31.25 -3/4s - (37.5 -2s)
<=> 0 = -6.25 + 1.25s
<=> 1.25s = 6.25
<=> s = 5
=> f = 37.5 -2(5) = 27.5
So the price of fertilizer is $27.5 and potting soil is $5

Answer:
subtract 1, add x, divide by four
Step-by-step explanation:
when you subtract the 1 and add the x, you move all of the x terms to one side and all of the constants to the other. Then you divide by 4 to see what x equals
4x + 1. Coefficient just means the number on the x and a constant means just a number by itself with no variable
