Solve the problem by multiplying first.
Apples cost $0.85 per pound and bananas cost $1.15 per pound. Leah bought a total of 14 pounds of
a+b = 14
apples and bananas for $13.40. The system of equations l 0.85a + 1.156 = 13.40 models this
situation, where a is the number of pounds of apples and b is the number of pounds of bananas. How
many pounds of each did Leah buy?
Leah bought pounds of apples and pounds of bananas.
