Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x= Quantity of donuts

y= Quantity of cupcakes

He bought 3 times as many donuts as cupcakes

Donuts=y= 3x

Donuts=0.50 each

Cupcakes=1.00 each

PxQx + PyQy = 10.00

0.50(x) + 1.00(y) = 10.00

0.50x + 1.00(3x)=10.00

0.50x+3.00x=10.00

3.50x=10.00

Divide both sides by 3.50

x=10.00/3.50

=2.86

y=3x

y=3(2.86)

=8.58

Jamal bought 2.86 donuts and 8.58 cupcakes

Check:

PxQx + PyQy = 10.00

0.50(2.86) + 1.00(8.58) = 10.00

1.43 + 8.58=10.00

10.01=10.00

10.01 approximately 10.00
