How to solve below question .

A supermarket is selling three different fruits, i.e. apple, orange and pear. The price of an apple is RM x, the price of an orange is twice of an apple, and the price of a pear is RM y. Two different stalls, stall A and stall B get their supplies from this supermarket. Stall A bought 350 apples, 200 oranges and 300 pears and pays RM 680. Stall B bought 400 apples, 150 oranges and 250 pears and pays RM 530.
i) Based on the above information, form a system of linear equations.
ii) Write the above linear equations in the form of a matrix equation.
 
Well, get to it! Define variables and write equations.

Let's see what you get.
 
What is the very first uncertainty for you in this exercise? Is it a word or a phrase that you do not understand? Where are you stuck?

The freemathhelp boards are primarily for students who already have some idea of what they need to accomplish; if you have no understanding about the meaning of your exercise, or you have never seen or worked anything like this before, then you are at the wrong place for help. Please chat up your instructor.

Otherwise, tell us what you've thought about or done thus far, and we may proceed from there.
