The number of apples that Kayden bought is 5.
How many apples did he buy?
$1.05a + $1.75b = 19.25 equation 1
a + b = 13 equation 2
Where:
- a = number of apples bought
- b = number of bananas bought
Multiply equation 2 by 1.75
1.75a + 1.75b = 22.75 equation 3
Subtract equation 2 from equation 3
3.5 = 0.7a
Divide both sides of the equation by 0.7
a = 3.5 / 0.7
a = 5
