Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

120G + 400E  = 73.60

            400E = 73.60 - 120G

                   E = 0.184 - 0.3G

                   200G + 350E = 72.00

200G + 350(0.184 - 0.3G) = 72.00

         200G + 64.4 - 105G = 72.00

                                   95G = 7.60

                                        G = $0.08/unit
