A grain dealer sold to one customer 5 bushels of wheat, 2 of com, and 3 of ryo, for $228: to another, 2 of wheat, 3 of corn, and 5 of ryo, for $228, and to a third, 3 of wheat, 5 of com, and 2 of rye, for $228. What was the price per bushel for com?

2.30 :) hope this helps :)

Step-by-step explanation:

w = wheat     c = corn    r = rye

6w + 3c + 6r = 45.90

3w + 6c + 6r = 49.20

6w + 6c + 3r = 41.40

since you want the answer for c, manipulate then add 2 equations that will get rid of 1 variable:

if we multiply the first equation by -1 then add it to the second equation, it will eliminate the r

-6w -  3c -  6r = - 45.90

3w + 6c + 6r =   49.20

- 3w +3c  =      3.30    or     w - c = - 1.10

If we multiply the 3rd equation by -2 then add it to the first equation, it will eliminate the  r  again:

-12w - 12c -  6r = - 82.80

  6w + 3c + 6r =    45.90

- 6w - 9c         =  - 36.90   or       2w + 3c  =   12.30

now we have 2 equations and 2 variables that we can solve by substitution:

w = c - 1.10

2(c - 1.10)  + 3c = 12.30

2c - 2.20 + 3c   =   12.30

5c = 14.50

c = 2.90      

w = c - 1.10   or  1.80

3r = 41.40 - 6(1.80) - 6(2.90)

3r = 13.20    r = 4.40

I will pick the 2nd equation to check my answers :)!

3(1.80) +  6(2.90)  + 6(4.40)  = 49.20

5.40 + 17.40 + 26.40 =  49.20

when rotating a figure 180 degrees, imagine that you are able to take the figure and turn it clockwise or counterclockwise around a center point. to rotate a figure 180 degrees, you will need to apply the rule (x, y) → (-x, -y). start by using a coordinate grid with coordinates for each vertex of the figure. the center point of the coordinate grid is located at (0, 0), which is what you will rotate the figure around. write down the original coordinates of the shape you are going to rotate. then, apply the rule. for example, coordinate (1, 2) becomes (-1, -2). another example would be, coordinate (-4, -2) becoming (4, 2). after you change each original coordinate to the rotated coordinate, you will draw your new figure.
