Question

1 loaf of bread and 3 boxes of egg rolls cost $25.80.3 loaves of bread and 6 boxes of egg rolls cost $53.40. How much did 1 loaf of bread cost?

Answer 1

Answer:

1 loaf of bread is  a dollar and 80 cents ($1.80)

Step-by-step explanation:

x= bread

y = egg rolls

x+3y  = 25.8

3x+6y = 53.40

3(x+3y = 25.8)

3x+6y = 53.40

3x+9y = 77.4

3x+6y = 53.40

3y = 24

y = 8 dols

x+24 = 25.8

x = 1.8
