Answer:
$10.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up a system of equations, so 3c + 2m = 7 and 2c + 4m = 8, where c = the cost of coffees, and m = cost of muffins
To solve multiply the first equation by -2(3c + 2m=7) so you get -6c -4m = -14 now add the two equations
-6c - 4m = -14
2c + 4m = 8 notice that -6c + 2c = -4c and -4m + 4m cancels, then -14+8=-6
so we have -4c = -6 so c = $1.50
To solve for m, substitute c = 1.50 so 3(1.50) + 2m = 7, so solve for m so
4.5 + 2m = 7, 2m = 2.5, so m = $1.25
So now solve the final problem 6(1.50) + 1(1.25) = $10.25
The least common denominator is 150. 15x10 = 150, and 50x3 = 150
