Christopher runs a farm stand that sells apples and bananas. Yesterday Christopher sold 35 pounds of apples and 34 pounds of bananas for a total revenue of $163.50. Today he sold 15 pounds of apples and 17 pounds of bananas for a total revenue of $76.75. Determine the price of each pound of apples and the price of each pound of bananas.

Pound of Apples = 2$

Pound of Banana = 2.75$

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Yesterday Christopher sold 35 pounds of apples (35A) and 34 pounds of bananas (34B) for a total revenue of $163.5 (=163.50)

Today he sold 15 pounds of apples (15A) and 17 pounds of bananas (17B) for a total revenue of $76.75. (=76.75)

Now well, we have a system of the equation

35A+34B=163.50

15A+17B=76.75

we must eliminate A or B,  As you can see 34 is twice 17, so we multiply on both sides of the equation so as not to alter it

35A+34B=163.50                35A+34B=163.50                            

15A+17B=76.75 (-2) ⇒        -30A-34B=-153.50

                                              5A-0B = 10

5A=10 ⇒ A=10/5 ⇒ A=2

and B:

35(2)+34B=163.5 ⇒ 70+34B=163.5 ⇒ 34B=163.5-70

34B=93.5 = 93.5/34

B=2.75

10 glasses of juice could be made with 5 carrots, 1,500 orange juice, 2,000 papaya juice.

d. millimeters per hour.

step-by-step explanation:

we are given that,

carlo used a rain gauge to measure the amount of water his lawn is receiving from the sprinklers.

since, according to the options, we see that,

water cannot be measured by 'miles per hour', 'meters per second' and 'grams per seconds'.

we get that, the water can be measured by 'millimeters per hour'.

hence, the appropriate rate for describing the amount of water is 'millimeters per hour'.
