Eight eagle stamps and two raccoon stamps cost $2.80. Three eagle stamps and four raccoon stamps cost $2.35. Find the cost of each kind of stamp Show work please

Cost of each eagle stamp = $0.25

Cost of each racoon stamp = $0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost of 8 eagle stamp and 2 racoon stamp = $2.80

Cost of 3 eagle stamp and 4 racoon stamp = $2.35

Find:

Cost of each stamp

Computation:

Assume;

Cost of each eagle stamp = e

Cost of each racoon stamp = r

So,

8e + 2r = 2.80 Eq 1

3e + 4r = 2.35 Eq 2

Eq 1 x 2

16e + 4r = 5.6 Eq3

Eq 3 - Eq 2

13e = 3.25

e = 0.25

Cost of each eagle stamp = $0.25

8e + 2r = 2.80

8(0.25) + 2r = 2.80

2 + 2r = 2.80

r = 0.4

Cost of each racoon stamp = $0.4

step-by-step explanation:

they will be decreasing both their times in half

60 / 2 = 30

40/2 = 20

30 + 20 = 50

x = 2

step-by-step explanation:

if sr parallel to ba then the sides bc and ac are in proportion, that is

= ← substitute values

= ( cross- multiply )

27x = 6(4x + 1)

27x = 24x + 6 ( subtract 24x from both sides )

3x = 6 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 2
