Answer 1

Answer:

Assuming you want someones meal cost. Beth's - $8.25, Carol's - $6.25

Step-by-step explanation:

What I did might not make since. I took 14.50 - 2.00 = 12.50. Then 12.50 / 2 = 6.25. So Carols is $6.25 with Beth's being $2 more or $8.25.

Answer 2

Answer:

(Beth)  b=$8.25

(Carol) c=$6.25

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Make Equations:      b+c=14.50        2+c=b

2) Substitute b Into The First Equation: 2+c+c=14.50

3) Simplify: 2c=12.50

4) Solve: c=6.25

5) Plug In c To The Second Equation: 2+6.25=b

6) Simplify: 8.25=b
