Question

Mrs Nu paid $2083 for 2 smiler laptops and 3 similar earphones. Each laptop cost of each earphones?​

Answer 1

The information given is incomplete :

Answer:

x = 1/2(2083 - 3y)

y = 1/3(2083 - 2x)

Explanation:

Let

Laptop cost = x

Earpiece cost = y

Number of laptops= 2

Number of earpiece = 3

2x + 3y = $2083

The cost per laptop :

2x = 2083 - 3y

Divide both sides by 2

x = (2083 - 3y) / 2

x = 1/2(2083 - 3y)

Or

3y = 2083 - 2x

y = (2083 - 2x) / 3

y = 1/3(2083 - 2x)
