For a school fundraiser students are selling snack bags and candy bars to raise money on Wednesday the students or 23 snack bags and 36 candy bars that raised $114.75 on Thursday the seventh so 37 snack bags and 36 candy bars that raised $146.25 what is the selling for each candy bar

$1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

The selling for each candy bar may be determined by  a set of linear equations. This pair of linear equations may be solved simultaneously by using the elimination method. This will involve ensuring that the coefficient of one of the unknown variables is the same in both equations.

It may be solved by substitution in that one of the variable is made the subject of the equation and the result is substituted into the second equation .

Let the cost of a snack bag be s and that of a candy bar be c, then if on Wednesday the students or 23 snack bags and 36 candy bars that raised $114.75 on Thursday the seventh so 37 snack bags and 36 candy bars that raised $146.25

23s + 36c = 114.75

37s + 36c = 146.25

14s = 31.5

s = $2.25

23(2.25) + 36c = 114.75

36c = 114.75 - 51.75

36c = 63

c = 63/36

= $1.75

check the picture below.

well, the angle at the vertex d is clearly not a right-angle, let's check for the one at the vertex f which does look like,   however if it's indeed, that means ef is perpendicular to df, in which case their slopes will be negative reciprocal of each other.

so the negative reciprocal of the slope of ef is 1, however the slope of df is not 1, is 1/2, so nope, they're not perpendicular lines.
