Question

At a particular restaurant, each chicken wing has 80 calories and each slider has 300 calories. A combination meal with sliders and chicken wings is shown to have 1360 total calories and twice as many sliders as there are chicken wings. Write a system of equations that could be used to determine the number of chicken wings in the combination meal and the number of sliders in the combination meal. Define the variables that you use to write the system.

Answer 1

80 c + 300 s = 1360

s = 2 c
