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

hope this !

according to the triangle sum theorem, all the angles in a triangle must add up to 180 degrees. if we know one angle is already 90, we do 180-90=90. the other 2 angles must add up to 90, exactly.
