Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Move all terms to the left side and set equal to zero. Then set each factor equal to zero.
Chocolate thickshakes will cost $5 and fruit smoothies will cost $3. Let's say the cost of chocolate thickshakes are x and the cost of fruit smoothies are y.
3x + 4y = 27
3x + 3y = 24
Whenever a problem says "one number" and "another number" we can substitute x and y. for this we have x=2y+1 and xy=1. since we know the value of x (2y+1) we can substitute it for the other equation to get (2y+1)y=10. simplify to get 2y^2+y=10. from here you can do a few methods to solve this, but the simplest in my opinion is by factoring.
In order to factor it must be equal to 0, so we have 2y^2+y-10=0. We factor this and get y=5 (we also get y=-4 but it is an extraneous root). now we can plug that into either equation and find that x=2.
this means our two numbers are 5 and 2
