At a particular restaurant, each chicken wing has 60 calories and each slider has 225 calories. A combination meal with chicken wings and sliders is shown to have 1380 total calories and twice as many chicken wings as there are sliders. Write a system of equations that could be used to determine the number of chicken wings in the combination meal and the number of sliders in the combination meal. Define the variables that you use to write the system.

x = number of chicken wings

y = number of sliders

60x + 225y = 1380

2y + y = 1380
