Coach Thomas brings his baseball team to get ice cream after each Friday night game. Last week, he purchased 9 cones and 8 cups of ice cream and payed $53.50. This week he purchased 6 cones and 11 cups of ice cream and paid $51.25. Write and solve a system of linear equations to determine the cost of each cone and each cup. Cups:
Cones:

c 1 hour

step-by-step explanation:

m = 2e

m = 2 so 2 = 2e

1 = e

question 1 is 8, question 2 is 9, question 3 is 24

step-by-step explanation:

now, the numbers they give you at the top are the key. from there, you just have to plug and chug! let's try 1, 2, and 3!

key: a=3, b=5, c=6

1. a+5

remember, a=3, so we plug that in to get 3+5=8

2. 15-c

c=6, so we plug that in to get 15-6=9

3. 4b

b=6, so we plug it in to get 4*6=24

time to try the rest on your own! if you put the answers below in a comment, i'll check them for you!
