Answer:

The price of a drink is $9.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the price of one bag of popcorn

y ----> the price of  one drink

we know that

Piper spends a total of $55.50 on 6 bags of popcorn and 2 drinks

so

6x+2y=55.50 ----> equation A

Skylar spends a total of $86.00 on 8 bags of popcorn and 4 drinks

so

8x+4y=86.00 ----> equation B

Solve the system by graphing

Remember that the solution of the system is the intersection point both lines

using a graphing tool

The solution is the point (6.25,9)

see the attached figure

therefore

The price of a drink is $9.00
