The total cost of an order of gift baskets includes the cost of each gift basket plus a one time delivery fee. The cost of each gift basket is the same regardless of how many the customer orders. One company bought 40 gift baskets for their employees for a total of $715. Another company bought 400 gift baskets for $5,935. Based on the information given, what is the cost per gift basket?

x = cost of each gift basket = $14.5

y = one time delivery fee = $135

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = cost of each gift basket

y = one time delivery fee

40x + y = 715 (1)

400x + y = 5935 (2)

Subtract (1) from (2)

400x - 40x = 5935 - 715

360x = 5220

x = 5220/360

x = 14.5

Substitute x = 14.5 into (1)

40x + y = 715 (1)

40(14.5) + y = 715

580 + y = 715

y = 715 - 580

y = 135

x = cost of each gift basket = $14.5

y = one time delivery fee = $135

the answer is b i just did that
