what is the solution to these two equations, like how do I find the cost for each variable for 1 unit? Like what is 1c equal to and what is 1d equal to, much thanks for anyone who answers!

3c+5d=$22.75

2c+3d=$14.25

3c + 5d  =  22.75   --->   x -2   --->   -6c - 10d  =  -45.50

2c + 3d  =  14.25  --->    x 3    --->     6c + 9d  =    42.75 

Adding down the columns:                          -d  =  -2.75   --->   d  =  2.75

Substituting:  3c + 5(2.75)  =  22.75   --->   3c + 13.75  =  22.75   --->   3c  =  9.00   --->   c = 3.00
