Answer:

Cost of each pencil = $12.5

Cost of each eraser = $7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of eraser bought = 3

Number of pencil bought = 2

Total amount paid = $47.50

Cost of one pencil and one eraser = $20

Find:

Each cost

Computation:

Let;

Cost of each eraser = e

Cost of each pencil = p

So,

e + p = 20

e = 20 - p .................................... eq1

3e + 2p = 47.50

3(20 - p) + 2p = 47.50

60 - 3p + 2p = 47.50

-p = -12.5

Cost of each pencil = $12.5

e = 20 - p

e = 20 - 12.5

e = 7.5

Cost of each eraser = $7.5
