Susie's sushi place two orders with its fish supplier one order was for 15 lb of salmon and 8 lb of tuna the order total $228 the other order was for 12 lb of salmon and 6 lb of tuna this ordered total for 180 what is the cost for 1 lb of salmon in 1 lb of tuna

Respuesta :

I will set it up and you finish. This is a system of linear equations in two variables.

Let s = 1 pound of salmon

Let t = 1 pound of tuna

15s + 8t = 228
12s + 6t = 180

Solve this system of equations for s and t to find your answer.
