The math club sold slices of pizza at a profit of three dollars each in cans of soda at two dollars each to raise money for a trip. They sold 200 items and made a profit of 550. Write the pair of linear equations I’m all of the situation.

Answer 1

Let x be the number of slices of pizza sold and y be the number of cans of soda sold.

1. 3x + 2y = 550 (Total profit made from selling slices of pizza and cans of soda)
2. x + y = 200 (Total number of items sold)
