Answer:$0.89

Explanation:

Solution by substitution method

4n+3p=7.43

5n+2p=7.03

Suppose,

4n+3p=7.43→(1)

5n+2p=7.03→(2)

Taking equation (1), we have

4n+3p=7.43

⇒4n= -3p+7.43

⇒n = -3p+7.43/4

→(3)Putting n= -3p+7.43/4 in equation (2), we get

= 5n+2p=7.03

= 5(-3p+7.43/4)+2p=7.03

⇒-15p+37.15+8p=28.12

⇒-7p + 37.15=28.12

⇒-7p=28.12 - 37.15

⇒-7p=-9.03

⇒p=9.03/7

⇒p= 1.29→(4)

Now, Putting p=1.29 in equation (3), we get

n=-3p+7.43

n= -3(1.29)+7.43 / 4

⇒n= -3.87+7.43 / 4

⇒n= 3.56 / 4

⇒n=0.89

∴n= $0.89 and p=1.29

Answer:

A.) $0.89

Step-by-step explanation:

2(4x+3y=7.43)

-3(5x+2y=7.03)

8x+6y=14.86

-15x-6y=-21.09

add the two equations

-7x=-6.23

divide by -7

x=.89
