Mr. Yi buys vegetables at a market. He purchases 6 pounds of potatoes, p, and 3 pounds of onions, n, for $18. Onions cost twice as much as potatoes. To determine the unit price for each item, his daughter sets up and solves the system of equations shown.
The equation 2n = p should be 2p = n.
The actual cost of the onions is $3.00 per pound.
Potatoes cost $1.50 per pound.
