Kim and Eduardo are selling fruit for a school fundraiser. Customers can buy small and large boxes of tangerines. Kim sold 12 small boxes of tangerines and 6 large boxes of tangerines for a total of $276. Eduardo sold 9 small boxes of tangerines and 11 large boxes of tangerines for a total of $337. Find the cost of one small box of tangerines and the
cost of one large box of tangerines.

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions

the answer is 2/54
