In winter, the price of apples suddenly went up by \$0.75$0.75dollar sign, 0, point, 75 per pound. sam bought 333 pounds of apples at the new price for a total of \$5.88$5.88dollar sign, 5, point, 88.

Let x = new apple price

Let y = $0.75 additional price

Let z = original price

3 pounds = apple Sam bought

$5.88 = total amount of apples Sam bought

1st,  let us divide 3 pounds from $5.88

5.88 ÷ 3 = 1.96 this is the new apple price per pound.

 X = $1.96

2nd, if you want to find the original price of the apples per pound before the increase, we just need to subtract the X to Y.

$1.96 –$ 0.75 = $1.21 is the original price of apple before the increase.

I am assuming that it only 3 pounds of apples, since it will be a negative / void if it will be 333 pounds, or even 33 pounds.

answer: yes i agree that you should not put it on/p>

step-by-step explanation: the reason for this is that it wastes other peoples time and also make them fail as well and that is never good.
