X= be coffee

Y=be donuts


Set up equations


10x+5y=16.50

5x+10y=14.25


Now multiply first equation by -2 to get a negative


(-2)10x+5y(-2)=16.50(-2)


-20x-10y=-33


Now put both equations to solve for x


-20x-10y=-33

5x+10y=14.25

___________

-15x. = -18.75


Now divide -15 bith sides to get x alone


X= -18.75/-15


X= 1.25



The cost of each coffee cup$1.25

What is the equation of the line that passes through the points (-3,5) (6,8)
Ratling [72]

(\stackrel{x_1}{-3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{5})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{6}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{8}) \\\\\\ \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{8}-\stackrel{y1}{5}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{6}-\underset{x_1}{(-3)}}}\implies \cfrac{3}{6+3}\implies \cfrac{3}{9}\implies \cfrac{1}{3}

\begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{5}=\stackrel{m}{\cfrac{1}{3}}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{(-3)}) \\\\\\ y-5=\cfrac{1}{3}(x+3)\implies y-5=\cfrac{1}{3}x+1\implies y=\cfrac{1}{3}x+6
