Emily and Molly are selling pies for a school fundraiser. Customers can buy cherry pies and lemon pies. Emily sold 4 cherry pies and 1 lemon pie for a total of $30. Molly sold 8 cherry pies and 6 lemon pies for a total of $100. What is the cost for one CHERRY and LEMON pie.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

let cherry be x

and lemon be y

the systems of the equation for the solution is given as

4x+y=301

8x+6y=1002

Step two:

solve the equation simultaneously by substitution we have

4x+y=30

y=30-4x

put y=30-4x in equation 2

8x+6(30-4x)=100

8x+180-24x=100

8x-24x=100-180

-16x=-80

x=80/16

x=5

put x=4 in y=30-4x

y=30-4(5)

y=30-20

y=10

step-by-step explanation:

first you will have to convert 3/4 into a decimal

which is .75

then you will have to divide 1.5 by .75

which is 2

no you have to divide
