Answer:
26 candy bars and 12 sodas
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem can be solved by a simple system of equations
I am going to call x the number of candy bars that Sally bought and y the number of sodas that Sally bought.
The fact that she bought 38 itens means the x + y = 38.
She spent $50.38. The value she spent is the sum of the number of candy bars multplied by the value of the candy bar and the number of sodas multiplied by value of a soda. So 1.25x + 1.49y = 50.38
So we have to solve the following system:
1)x + y = 38
2)1.25x + 1.49y = 50.38
From 1), we have that x = 38 - y. I am going to replace it in 2)
1.25(38-y) + 1.49y = 50.38
-1.25y + 1.49y = 50.38 - 47.5
0.24y = 2.88
y = 12.
Sally bought 12 sodas.
In 1: x = 38-y = 38-12 = 26
Sally bourght 26 candy bars
Ans
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
A) The solution set is (6,-8).
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - y = 26
-3x - 3x Subtract 3x from both sides
-y = -3x + 26 Divide both sides by -1
y = 3x - 26
Now plug this into 7x + 8y = -22 to solve for x
7x + 8(3x - 26) = -22 Distribute
7x + 24x - 208 = -22 Combine like terms
31x - 208 = -22
+ 208 + 208 Add 208 to both sides
31x = 186 Divide both sides by 31
x = 6
Plug this into y = 3x - 26 to solve for y
y = 3(6) - 26 Multiply
y = 18 - 26 Subtract
y = -8
