Edit: 33% is not

, therefore my solution is wrong. The correct answer is 0.33 x 496, which is $163.68
The following is the original solution, which is incorrect.
33% =

. Multiply the bonus of $496 by

to get the solution of

, or 165 and

Therefore the solution is $165.33
Answer:
Pies=$0.85
Donuts= $1.20
Step-by-step explanation:
In the equation let p stand for the number of pies and d stand for the number of donuts.
To solve this set up 2 equations, one representing bill and the other representing Mary Ann.
- Bill's equation is 5p+7d=$12.65.
- Mary Ann's equation is 6p+6d=$12.30
Then solve using a system of equations. Systems of equations can be solved using elimination or substitution. I will use substitution. Solve bill's equation for p. This gives you
. Then, you can substitute that into Mary Ann's equation. This looks like
. Solve for d. Once you solve d=1.20. Finally, substitute 1.20 back into either Bill's or Mary Ann's for d and solve for p. No matter which equation you use p=0.85.
M=-3.5+2t, R=-3t when they meet M=R so
-3.5+2t=-3t
-3.5+5t=0
5t=3.5
t=0.7 hrs (42 minutes)
