Question

Situation: The No Doze Cafe sells Pumpkin Spice Lattes for $3 and Caramel Hot Apple Cider for $2. On a cool autumn morning, the shop sold 5 more Ciders than Lattes and made $25.

Define x and y variables and write the equation/s.

Answer 1

X is lattes y is ciders
3x+2y=25
y-x=5
y=5+x

3x+2(5+x)=25
3x+10+2x=25
5X=15
X=3

Y=3+5=8
