A gift basket has 2 soaps and 5 lotions and costs $20. A second gift basket has 6 soaps and 15 lotions and costs $50. Is it possible to determine the price of the soap?

No

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question,you will have to represent the variables with a specific letters so as to make the solving easier

Ok...let the soap be y and the lotion be x

2y+5x=20...(1)

6y+15x=50...(2)

Multiply (1) by 15

30y+75x=300...(3)

Multiply (2) by 5

30y+75x=250...(4)

If we should compare both (3) and (4) there is no way to eliminate any of these variables... because to solve this problem we will have to use elimination methods

Therefore it is not possible to get the actual price of any of them that is the soap and the lotion
