Answer:

The system of equations that can be used to find the price of one bag of popcorn and the price of one drink are:

8p + 10d = 85

2p + 2d = 20.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of a bag of popcorn be p

Let the price of one drink be d

Charlotte spends a total of $85.00 on 8 bags of popcorn and 10 drinks. This means

8p + 10d = 85

Savannah spends a total of $20.50 on 2 bags of popcorn and 2 drinks.

2p + 2d = 20.50

The system of equations that can be used to find the price of one bag of popcorn and the price of one drink are:

8p + 10d = 85 ----------1

2p + 2d = 20.50 - - - - - -2

Solving the equations with elimination method, multiply equation 1 by 2 and equation 2 by 8

16p + 20d = 170

16p + 16d = 164

Subtracting,

4d = 6

d = 6/4 = $1.5

Put d = 2 in equation 1

8p + 15 = 85

p = 70/8 = $8.75

hram777 [196]
Since the radius is the same but the height changes, the volume would change by the multiple of the height.
 In this case the volume of the larger cone would be 4 times as large as the smaller cone so you would need 4 small cones
