Farmers market Sells grapefruit strawberries and avocado they each have a different cost and are price per box Alyssa Buys two boxes of strawberries and three boxes of avocados and spent $23 London by three boxes of grapefruit and four boxes of strawberries in Spain $19 Tina by seven boxes of grapefruit and five boxes of avocados in Spencer $51 find the missing quantity below

The cost of grapefruits per box is $3, The cost of strawberries per box is $2.5

The cost of avocados per box is $6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us represent the price of Grapefruits per box = g

Strawberries per box = s

Avocados per box = a

Alyssa buys two boxes of strawberries and three boxes of avocados and spent $23

2s + 3a = 23 Equation 1

a = 23 - 2s

London buys three boxes of grapefruit and four boxes of strawberries in Spain $19

3g + 4s = 19 Equation 2

Tina buys seven boxes of grapefruit and five boxes of avocados in Spencer $51

7g + 5a = 51 Equation 3

2s + 3a = 23 Equation 1

3g + 4s = 19 Equation 2

7g + 5a = 51 Equation 3

Substituting 3a = 23 - 2s in Equation 3

a = 23 - 2s/3

7g + 5(23 - 2s/3) = 51

7g +( 115 - 10s/3) = 51

Multiply through by 3

7g × 3 + ( 115 - 10s/3) × 3 = 51 × 3

21g + 115 - 10s = 153

21g -10s = 38 Equation 4

Combining Equation 2 and 4

3g + 4s = 19 Equation 2 × 10

21g -10s = 38 Equation 4 × 4

30 + 40s = 190.. Equation 5

84g - 40s = 152 Equation 6

We Add Equation 5 and Equation 6 to eliminate s

114g = 342

g = 342/114

g = $3

To find s, cost 0f straw berries

g = $3

3g + 4s = 19 Equation 2

3(3) + 4s = 19

9 + 4s = 19

4s = 19 -9

4s = 10

s = 10/4

s = $2.5

For find a, the cost of avocados.

7g + 5a = 51 Equation 3

g = $3

7(3) + 5a = 51

21 + 5a = 51

5a = 51 - 21

5a = 30

a = 30/5

a = $6

g =$ 3, s =$ 2.5 and a = $6.

Therefore:

The cost of grapefruits per box is $3.

The cost of strawberries per box is $2.5 and

The cost of avocados per box is $6

hey! so 1 (25) out of 4 (100) is 25 so your answer is 25%. it's like quarters!
