You can put this solution on YOUR website! x = dollars per pound oranges
y = dollars per pound bananas
z = dollars per pound apples
---
2x + 3y + 4z = 9.86
3x + 2y + 1z = 6.89
3x + 3y = 6.60
---
put the system of linear equations into standard form
---
2x + 3y + 4z = 9.86
3x + 2y + 1z = 6.89
3x + 3y = 6.60
