Question

Jason and his children went to a movie theater where they sell drinks for $4 each and pretzels for $5 each Jason has $65 to spend at least 14 drinks and pretzels all together

Answer 1

Number of drink = 5

Number of pretzel = 9

Explanation:

Given:

Cost of each drink = $4

Cost of each pretzel = $5

Total money = 65

Total number of drink and pretzel = 14

Find:

Number of drink and pretzel

Computation:

Number of drink = x

Number of pretzel = 14 - x

So,

x(4) + (14-x)5 = 65

4x + 70 - 5x = 65

x = 5

Number of drink = 5

Number of pretzel = 14 - x

Number of pretzel = 14 - 5 = 9
