Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the shake be x and the burrito y
x + 2y = 3040 ---- (1)
2x + y = 2840 ---- (2)
Make x the subject of formula in equation (1)
x + 2y - 2y = 3040 - 2y
x = 3040 - 2y
Substitute x = 3040 - 2y for x in equation (2)
2(3040 - 2y) + y = 2840
6080 - 4y + y = 2840
6080 - 3y = 2840
Subtract 2840 from both sides of the equation and add 3y to both sides of the equation
6080 - 3y + 3y - 2840 = 2840 - 2840 + 3y
6080 - 2840 = 3y
3y = 3240
Divide both sides by the coefficient of x(which is 3)
y = 1080
Substitute y = 1080 for y in equation (2)
2x + 1080 = 2840
2x = 2840 - 1080
2x = 1760
x = 880
∴ The caloric content of one shake is 880 and for one burrito is 1080
