Answer:

Drinks = 6.75

Popcorn= 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the popcorn = P

Let the drink = D

2*P + 3*D = 22.25         multiply this equation by 6

12*P + 4D = 39.00

<u>12P + 18D = 133.5</u>          Subtract these two equations

- 14D = - 94.50               Divide by -14

-14D/-14 = -94.5/-14        Do the division

D = 6.75

=========================

12P  +  4D = 39            Substitute for D

12P + 4*6.75 = 39        Combine

12P + 27 = 39               Subtract 27 from both sides

12P + 27-27=39-27      Collect like terms

12P = 12                        Divide by 12

12P/12 = 12/12

P = 1                               Answer

What is 9m + 2 = 3m - 10
cupoosta [38]
9m+2=3m-10
subtract 3m from both sides to get:
6m+2=-10
subtract 2 from both sides to get:
6m=-12
finally, divide by 6 on both sides to get what m equals:
m=-2
