Question

Instructions: Drag each number to the correct location on the equations. Each number can be used more than once, but not all numbers will be used.

Mark is treating his family to ice cream. He buys 4 sundaes and 3 cones for a total of $26. Brian also buys ice cream for his family. His total is $29 for purchasing 2 cones and 5 sundaes.

Determine the system of equations that can be used to find the cost of one sundae, s, and the cost of one cone, c.

Mark ___ s + ___ c = ___

Brian ___ s + ___ c = ___

5, 3, 29, 7, 55, 2 ,4, 26

Answer 1

The correct answer is:

Mark: 4s + 3c = 26

Brain: 5s + 2c = 29

Hope this helped!!

Answer 2

The system of equation that is obtained in terms of 's' and 'c' is:

Mark 4 s +3 c = 26

Brian 5 s + 2 c = 29

Explanation:

Let the cost of one sundae be denoted by 's'

and cost of one cone be denoted by 'c'.

Now we are given a information as:

• Mark is treating his family to ice cream. He buys 4 sundaes and 3 cones for a total of $26.

so, the equation that can be obtained on the basis of above

information is:

4s+3c=26

• Also,Brian also buys ice cream for his family. His total is $29 for purchasing 2 cones and 5 sundaes.

so, the equation that can be obtained on this given

information is:

5s+2c=29
