Ava and her children went into a movie theater and she bought $48 worth of drinks and candies. Each drink costs $4 and each candy costs $3. She bought 2 more candies than drinks. Make a graph with the system of equations

Answer 1

Ava and her children went into a movie theater and she bought $48 worth of drinks and candies.

Let the drinks be x and the candies be y

4 x + 3 y = 48 -------------- equ 1

Each drink costs $4 and each candy costs $3. She bought 2 more candies than drinks.

She bought 2 more candies than drinks.

4 x + ( 3 y + 2 ) = 48

4x + 3 y = 48- 2

4x + 3y = 46 ......................... equ 2
