A buisness center charges a flat fee to send faxes plus a fee per page. You send one fax wih 4 pages for $5.36 and another fax with 7 pages for $7.88. Find the flat fee and the cost per page
Answer provided by our tutors
x + 4y = 5.36
x + 7y = 7.88
-x - 4y = -5.36
3y = 2.52
y = 0.84
x + 4(0.84) = 5.36
x + 3.36 = 5.36
x = 2
Therefore, the flat fee is $2.00 and the cost per page is $0.84
