BRAINLIEST IF RIGHT Trevon's Custom Kitchen Supplies sells handmade forks and spoons. It costs the store $1.80 to buy the supplies to make a fork and $1.40 to buy the supplies to make a spoon. The store sells forks for $4.60 and spoons for $5.40. Last April Trevon's Custom Kitchen Supplies spent $24.60 on materials for forks and spoons. They sold the finished products for a total of $73.80. How many forks and how many spoons did they make last April?

Step-by-step explanation:let the no of forks be x and no of spoon be y

1.7x + 1.3y = 37.9

5.6x + 5.4y = 147.2

solving for x and y, we get

multiplying eqn 1 by 5.6 and equation 2 by 1.7 we get

9.52x + 7.28y = 212.24

9.52x + 9.18y = 250.24

subsrtracting eqns we get

7.28y - 9.18y = 212.24 - 250.24

1.9y = 38

y = 20

x = (37.9 -1.3*20)/1.7

= 7

5=812a+9+3

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

5=812a+9+3

5=(812a)+(9+3)(combine like terms)

5=812a+12

5=812a+12

step 2: flip the equation.

812a+12=5

step 3: subtract 12 from both sides.

812a+12−12=5−12

812a=−7

step 4: divide both sides by 812.

812a /812 = -7/812

a= -1/116

so the answer is

a=   -1/116
