Question

I need help doing this equation​

Answer 1

Answer:

Candy = $ 0.5

Soda = $ 4.0

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 2y = 5

x + 4y = 6

2y = 1

y = 1/2

= two candies were added and the price increased by 1 dollar, meaning that the a single candy is 0.5 dollar

1 candy = 0.5

x + 2(0.5) = 5

x + 1 = 5

x = 4
