A question I have been trying to solve:
1 answer:
Answer:
A jumbo burrito cost more than $3.00
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>The correct question is</em></u>
The Larsen Family bought 3 jumbo burritos and 2 regular burritos for $13.65. The Russo family bought 5 jumbo burritos and 2 regular burritos for $20.23. Does a jumbo burrito cost more than $3.00? Write and solve a system of equations to justify your answer
Let
x ---> the price of one jumbo burrito
y ---> the price of one regular burrito
we know that
<em>The Larsen Family</em>
----> equation A
<em>The Russo family</em>
----> equation B
Solve the system by graphing
Remember that the solution is the intersection point both graphs
using a graphing tool
The solution is (3.29,1.89)
see the attached figure
The cost of a jumbo burrito is $3.29
therefore
A jumbo burrito cost more than $3.00
