Answer 1

Answer:

number of candy bars 26 number of lollipops 19

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

11 lollipops

18 candy bars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of lollipops sold be x and the number of candy bars sold be y. Then:

x + 1.25y = 33.50

y = x + 7

-x + y = 7        Adding this to the first equation:

2.25y = 40.50

y = 18

so x = 18-7 = 11.
