Answer :

Answer:

$10.50

Step-by-step explanation:

4+3=7

12.25/7=1.75

6x1.75=10.50

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Amar = 4s + 3c = 12.25

Dylan = 1s + 2c = 4

4s + 3c = 12.25

4s + 8c = 16 // Multiply both sides by 4

5c = 3.75

And we get c = 0.75 once you divide 3.75 by 5.

So we can now plug in 0.75 in the first equation

4s + 3(0.75)  = 12.25

4s + 2.25 = 12.25

    -2.25  -2.25

4s = 2.5

2.5 x 4 = 10

0.75 x 3 = 2.25

10 + 2.25 = 12.25

So Cucumbers = 0.75 and Salsa = 2.25

Dakota bought 1 salsa so 2.25 + 0.75(5) cucumbers

The answer is 6
