Answer:
The price of a drink = $4
The price of a bag of popcorn = $5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p represent popcorn and d represent drink
Harper bought 10 bags of popcorn and 6 drinks and paid $79 ➡ 10p + 6d = $79
Damian bought 3 bags of popcorn and 5 drinks and paid $36.50 ➡ 3p + 5d = $36.50
Now multiply first equation by -3 and second equation by 10
-3 × (10p + 6d) = $79 ➡ -30p - 18d = -$237
10 × (3p + 5d) = $36.50 ➡ 30p + 50d = $365
Now add the new equationd
30p + 50d -30p - 18d = $365 - $237 (-30p will eliminate 30p)
32d = $128 divide both sides of the equation by 32
32 ÷ 32d = 32 ÷ $128 ➡ d = 4
If d = 4 that means a drink costs $4 we can use this information to find the price of a bag of popcorn
3p + 5d = $36.50 (replace d with 4)
3p + 4×5 = $36.50
3p + 20 = $36.50
3p = $36.50 - 20
3p = 16.50 divide both sides by 3
p = $5.5

Answer:

a. y=\frac{2x}{x-5}

b. y=\frac{2-4x}{x-3}

Step-by-step explanation:

change switch x and y and then solve for y.

a. x=\frac{5y}{y-2}

x(y-2)=5y

xy-2x=5y

xy-5y=2x

y(x-5)=2x

y=\frac{2x}{x-5}

same for b.

b. x=\frac{3y+2}{y+4}

x(y+4)=3y+2

xy+4x=3y+2

xy-3y=2-4x

y(x-3)=2-4x

y=\frac{2-4x}{x-3}
