Answer:

$5 and $3

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of banana split = b

Cost of hot fudge sundae = s

  • b + 2s = 11
  • 4b + 3s = 29

<u>From the first equation we get: </u>

  • b = 11 - 2s

<u>Replacing in the second equation:</u>

  • 4(11 - 2s) + 3s = 29
  • 44 - 8s + 3s = 29
  • 44 - 29 = 5s
  • 15 = 5s
  • s = 15/5
  • s = 3

Then

  • b = 11 - 2*3 = 11 - 6 = 5

So banana split costs $5 and hot fudge sundae costs $3
