Answer:

Quarter pounder has -580 calories and the Whooper has

1589 calories

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent quarter pounders and y represent the Whoppers.

2 QP and 3 Whoppers provide 3607 calories and one of each provide 1009. so let set up the system

$2x + 3y = 3607$

$x + y = 1009$

Apply subsitution method

$y = 1009 - x$

$2x + 3(1009 - x) = 3607$

$2x + 3027 - 3x = 3607$

$- x + 3027 = 3607$

$- x = 580$

$x = - 580$

Plug the system back into one of the equations and we get

$y = 1589$
