Question

On a family outing, Tyler bought 5 cups of hot cocoa and 4 pretzels for $18.40. Some of his family members would like a second serving, so he went back to the same food stand and bought another 2 cups of hot cocoa and 4 pretzels for $11.20.
5c + 4p = 18.40
2c + 4p = 11.20
Solution: (2.4, 1.6)
What does the solution mean in context?
*
1 point
Tyler bought 2.4 pretzels and 1.6 cups of hot cocoa
Tyler spent $2.40 and then another $1.60 extra the second order
Tyler spent $2.40 more the first order and $1.60 more the second order
Tyler spent $2.40 for each pretzel and $1.60 for each cup of hot cocoa
Tyler bought 2.4 times more pretzels than cups of hot cocoa

Answer 1

(2.4, 1.6) means c = $2.40 and p = $1.60 — each cup of hot cocoa costs $2.40 and each pretzel costs $1.60.

None of the given choices state that correctly (choice 4 reverses the two).
