Let
x-------------> <span>the price of each cup
</span>y-------------> the price of each plate

we know that

5x+3y=28.50----------> equation 1
and
x=y-6.30--------------> equation 2

I substitute 2 in 1
5*(y-6.30)+3y=28.50---------> 5y-31.5+3y=28.5-----> 8y=60
y=7.5
x=y-6.3---------> x=7.5-6.3---------> x=1.2

the answer is
the price of each cup is $1.2
 the price of each plate is $7.5

A bakery used 38 pounds of flour to make French bread and
fomenos

Answer:

since we are not given the options, I will write down a few equations that represent the number of French bread loaves and bagels:

  • a = number of loaves of French bread
  • b = number of bagels
  • available amount of flour = 38

2a + b ≤ 38

2a ≤ 38 - b

a ≤ (38 - b) / 2

a ≤ 19 - 0.5b

b ≤ 38 - 2a

b ≤ 2(19 - a)

Hopefully one of these equations is one of the choices given to you.
