Question

Daniel and Lisa are selling wrapping paper for a school fundraiser. Customers can buy rolls of plain wrapping paper and rolls of holiday wrapping paper. Daniel sold 5 rolls of plain wrapping paper and 3 rolls of holiday wrapping paper for a total of $74. Lisa sold 1 roll of plain wrapping paper and 3 rolls of holiday wrapping paper for a total of $58. Find the cost each of one roll of plain wrapping paper and one roll of holiday wrapping paper

Answer 1

P = 4 & H = 18

Explanation:

Daniel : 5 plain paper + 3 holiday paper = 74, 5P + 3H = 74 . Lisa : 1 plain paper + 3 holiday paper = 58, P + 3H = 58 . Solving two equations, P = 4 & H = 18
