Answer:

Correct choice is D (In a whole pepperoni pizza are 660 calories, in  in a whole ham and pineapple pizza are 580 calories).

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x calories be the number of calories a whole pepperoni pizza contains and y calories be the number of calories a whole ham and pineapple pizza contains.

1. If half a pepperoni pizza plus three fourths of a ham and pineapple pizza contains 765 calories, then

\dfrac{1}{2}x+\dfrac{3}{4}y=765.

2. If 1/4 of a pepperoni pizza plus a whole ham and pineapple pizza contains 745 calories. then

\dfrac{1}{4}x+y=745.

3. Multiply each equation by 4 and get a system of two equations:

\left\{\begin{array}{l}2x+3y=3060\\x+4y=2980\end{array}\right.

From the second equation x=2980-4y, then

2(2980-4y)+3y=3060,\\ \\5960-8y+3y=3060,\\ \\-8y+3y=3060-5960,\\ \\-5y=-2900,\\ \\y=580.

Then

x=2980-4\cdot 580=2980-2320=660.

A total of 1,650 boxes of Girl Scout cookies were sold last week. Each large box cost $3.50 and each small box cost $2.00. The G
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

900 large boxes were sold, and 750 small boxes.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved by a system of equations.

I am going to say that:

x is the number of large boxes of cookies sold.

y is the number of small boxes of cookies sold.

A total of 1,650 boxes of Girl Scout cookies were sold last week.

This means that

x + y = 1650

So

x = 1650 - y

Each large box cost $3.50 and each small box cost $2.00. The Girl Scout group earned $4,650.

This means that

3.5x + 2y = 4650

Since x = 1650 - y

3.5(1650 - y) + 2y = 4650

5775 - 3.5y + 2y = 4650

1.5y = 1125

y = \frac{1125}{1.5}

y = 750

x = 1650 - y = 1650 - 750 = 900

900 large boxes were sold, and 750 small boxes.
