A sandwich store charges a delivery fee to bring lunch to an office.
Delivery cost - D
Meatball sandwich cost - M
One office pays $40.50 for 5 meatball sandwiches.
40.50 = 5M + D
Another office pays $66.50 for 9 meat ball sandwiches
66.50 = 9M + D
A. How much does each meatball sandwich add to the cost of delivery?
D = 40.50 - 5M = 66.50 - 9M
40.50 - 5M = 66.50 - 9M
9M - 5M = 66.50 - 40.50
4M = 26.00
M = 6.50
B. What is the delivery fee
D = 40.50 - 5M = 40.50 - 5(6.50) = 40.50 - 32.50 = 8.00
Check
66.50 = 9M + D = 9(6.50) + 8 = 58.50 + 8.00 = 66.50
The answer is -6.825 in fraction form, it would be -6 33/40
ANSWER
The correct answer is option B
EXPLANATION
The equations are
![3x+5y=29---(1)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=3x%2B5y%3D29---%281%29)
and
![x+4y=16---(2)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%2B4y%3D16---%282%29)
When we multiply the second equation by
, we obtain;
![-3x-12y=-48---(3)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-3x-12y%3D-48---%283%29)
When we combine this new equation with equation (1).
![-7y=-19](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-7y%3D-19)
We can see that
has been eliminated from the equation.
We can then, solve for
and then substitute the result in to any of the equations to find
.
Hence the correct answer is option B
