You are selling pizza slices and sodas.
Each pizza slice sells for $3.50 and each soda sells for $1.50.
At the end of the night, you made a total of $800.
You sold a total of 344 pizza slices and sodas combined.
You must report the number of pizza slices sold and the number of sodas sold.
What equations did you use to solve this, where P = the number of pizza slices sold and S = the number of sodas sold?

To solve the problem, we would set up the following equations based on the information provided:
The total revenue from selling pizza slices and sodas:
\( 3.50P + 1.50S = 800 \)
The total number of pizza slices and sodas sold:
\( P + S = 344 \)
Therefore, the correct response is:
3.50P + 1.50S = 800 and P + S = 344
