A fruit vendor sells apples and mangos. Each apple costs the same amount, and each mango costs the same amount. · Lucy buys 3 apples and 6 mangos for a total of $9.15.

· Amir buys 8 apples and 4 mangos for 11.92.

What is the cost of a single apple?

$0.97

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of a single apple is x and that of single mango is y.

ATQ,

3x+6y=9.15 (1)

8x+4y=11.92 ...(2)

Multiply equation (1) by 8 and equation (2) by 3

24x+48y=73.2 ...(3)

24x+12y=35.76  ...(4)

Subtract equation (2) from (1) :

24x+12y-(24x+48y) = 35.76  - 73.2

12y-48y = -37.44

-36y = -37.44

y = $1.04

Put the value of y in equation (1)

3x+6y=9.15

3x+6(1.04) = 9.15

3x = 9.15-6(1.04)

3x = 2.91

x = $0.97

Hence, the cost of single apple is $0.97.
