Answer:

4a+4r = 10

6a + 6r = 12

No solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

a = cost of the apple

r = cost of the orange

4a+4r = 10

6a + 6r = 12

Divide the first  equation by 2 and the second equation by 6

2a+2r = 5

a +r = 2

Multiply the second equation by -2 so we can eliminate a

-2a -2r = -4

Add the first equation

2a+2r = 5

-2a -2r = -4

---------------------

0 = 1

This system is inconsistent and has no solutions
