Question

A store having a sale on chocolate chips

Answer 1

Answer:

chocolate chips: $3.75

walnuts: $2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

lets say chocolate chips cost x dollars and walnuts cost y dollars. we then have

6x + 5y = 35

2x + 3y = 15

multiply the second equation by 3 to get 6x + 9y = 45

subtract the 1st equation from the new equation to get 4y = 10, so y=$2.50

plug this value into the 2nd equation to get x=$3.75
