Question 866167
x= 	cost of	cinnamon tea						
y=	cost of	spice tea						
 								
15.00	x	+	10.00	y	=	1,625.00	.............1	
Total value								
14.00	x	+	16.00	y	=	2,520.00	.............2	
Eliminate	y							
multiply (1)by		-8.00						
Multiply (2) by		5.00						
-120.00	x		-80.00	y	=	-13,000.00		
70.00	x	+	80.00	y	=	12,600.00		
Add the two equations								
-50.00	x				=	-400.00		
/	-50.00							
x	=	8.00						
plug value of			x	in (1)				
15.00	x	+	10.00	y	=	1,625.00		
120.00		+	10.00	y	=	1,625.00		
			10.00	y	=	1,625.00		-120.00
			10.00	y	=	1,505.00		
				y	=	150.50		
x=	8.00		cost of	cinnamon tea				
y=	150.50		cost of	spice tea
