A farmer sells a dozen eggs at the market for 2.00 and one of his bags of gains for 5.00 he sold 5 time as many bags of grains as he has dozens of eggs. By the end of the day he has made 243.00 worth of sales. How many bags of grain did he sell

45 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of a dozen eggs = 2

A bag of grain = 5

Let :

dozens of eggs sold = x

Bag of grains sold = 5x

Total sales worth = 243

Quantity sold * price

2* x + 5 * 5x

2x + 25x = 243

27x = 243

x = 243 / 27

x = 9

Bags of grains sold = 5x = 9*5 = 45 bags

x = ± 6i

step-by-step explanation:

x^2 = -36

take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(-36)

we know sqrt(ab) = sqrt(a) sqrt(b)

x = ±sqrt(36) sqrt(-1)

we know that sqrt (-1) = i

x = ± 6i
