Answer:
Let the cost of orange be X and cost of cherry be y
3x + 9y = 78
8x + 4y = 58
Solving equation using elimination method
multiplying eq 1 with 8 and eq 2 with 3
8(3x + 9y ) = 78(8)
3( 8x + 4y) = 3(58)
24x + 72 y = 624
24x + 12y = 174
subtracting,
60 y = 450
y = 7.5
3x + 9(7.5) = 78
3x + 67.5 = 78
3x = 78 - 67.5
3x = 10.5
x = 3.5
<h2>Box of orange = $3.5 </h2><h2>Box of cherry = $7.5</h2>
b) five more than m
"m in addition to 5"= m+5
Combine like terms and then simplify
