Which system of equations yields the cost of one piece of fudge, f, and one piece of taffy, t? A) f + t = 20 6f + 13t = 17.45 B) 4f + 10t = 7.95 2f + 3t = 9.50 C) 4f + 3t = 7.95 2f + 10t = 9.50 D) 4f + 3t = 17.45 2f + 10t = 17.45

Answer 1

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

Option C is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of fudge be f and taffy be t.

Chris bought 4 pieces of fudge and 3 pieces of taffy for a total of $7.95

4 f + 3 t = 7.95

Samantha bought 2 pieces of fudge and 10 pieces of taffy for a total of $9.50

2 f + 10 t = 9.5

Comparing with the options given, we will get

So, option C is the correct answer.
