Astore is having a sale on trail mix and jelly beans. for 2 pounds of trail mix and 3 pound of jelly beans, the total cost is $16. for 6 pounds of trail mix and 5 pounds of jelly beans, the total cost is $34. find the cost for each pound of trail mix and each pound of jelly beans.

The cost of each pound of trial mix = $2.75

The cost of each pound of jelly beans = $3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of each pound of trail mix be x and the cost of each pound of jelly bean be y.

Then according to the question, we have the following system,

Multiply 3 on both the sides of equation (1), we get

Eliminate equation (2) from (3), we get

Substitute the value of y in equation (1), we get

Hence, the cost of each pound of trial mix = $2.75

The cost of each pound of jelly beans = $3.5

total amount of money that he should pay if he has not used his duty free exemption is $98

cost of 3 shirts if one cost at $8.50 is

cost of 2 dresses if one cost at $27.50 is
