Brianna and Ava go to the movie theater and purchase refreshments for their friends. Brianna spends a total of $39.00 on 2 bags of popcorn and 2 drinks. Ava spends a total of $174.50 on 8 bags of popcorn and 10 drinks. Write a system of equations that can be used to find the price of one bag of popcorn and the price of one drink. Using these equations, determine and state the price of a drink, to the nearest cent.

2p + 2d = 39 (1)

8p + 10d = 174.50 (2)

Price of one drink is $9.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of a bag of popcorn be p.

Let the price of a drink be d.

Brianna spends a total of $39.00 on 2 bags of popcorn and 2 drinks. This implies that:

2p + 2d = 39 (1)

Ava spends a total of $174.50 on 8 bags of popcorn and 10 drinks. This implies that:

8p + 10d = 174.50 (2)

We now have two system of equations which we can use to find the price of a bag of popcorn and drink:

2p + 2d = 39 (1)

8p + 10d = 174.50 (2)

Multiply (1) by 4 subtract from (2):

 8p + 10d = 174.50 (2)

- 8p + 8d = 156    (1)

        2d = 18.50

=>       d = $9.25

The price of one drink is $9.25
