Ellen bought new fish for her home aquarium. She bought 4 Turquoise Guppies and 3 Sunburst Tetra GLO Fish and spent a total of $41.73. Danielle bought 3 Turquoise Guppies and 5 Sunburst Tetra GLO Fish for a total of $56.02. How much was one Turquoise Guppy.

Sagot :

Answer: Ellen: 4t + 3s = 41.73

Danielle: 3t + 5s = 56.02

t = $3.69 each

Step-by-step explanation:

with 4t + 3s = 41.73 and 3t + 5s = 56.02

you need yo eliminate s to get t so multiply 3t + 5s = 56.02 by -3/5 to get

-9/5t - 3s = -33.612 then add 4t + 3t = 41.73 to get

11/5t = 8.118 then divide 8.118 by 11/5 to get

t = 3.69
