Answer:

 the cost per pound of the oranges = $2

 the cost per pound of the  bananas = $2

Step-by-step explanation:

o=oranges

b=bananas

5o +2b = 14

3o + 6b =18

I will multiply the first by -3 to eliminate the b variable

-15o -6b = -42

 3o +6b = 18

ADD BOTH

-12o  =  -24

o =2

5(2) +2b=14

10+2b=14

2b=4

b=2
