Answer:
88 Vegetarian Wraps Sold.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a System of Equations Problem.
Your Two Systems Are:
v(1)+c(2.7)=244.6 and c+v=146
c = chicken wraps and v = vegetarian wraps
Each chicken wrap costs $2.70 (2.7). Put the variable of c next to (2.7) meaning to multiply.
Each vegetarian wrap costs $1 (1). Put the variable of v next to (1)
244.60 (244.6) is the total amount of money made from selling the wraps. This will be the total of the equation.
v(1)+c(2.7)=244.6
Solve 2.7c+v=244.6 for v.
Add -2.7c to both sides.
2.7c+v+−2.7c=244.6+−2.7c
v=−2.7c+244.6
Substitute −2.7c+244.6 for v in c+v=146.
c+v=146
c+−2.7c+244.6=146
Simplify both sides of the equation.
−1.7c+244.6=146
Add -244.6 to both sides.
−1.7c+244.6+−244.6=146+−244.6
−1.7c=−98.6
Divide both sides by -1.7.
[tex]\frac{-1.7c}{-1.7} =\frac{-98.6}{-1.7}[/tex]
c=58
Substitute 58 for c in v=−2.7c+244.6.
v=−2.7c+244.6
v=(−2.7)(58)+244.6
Simplify both sides of the equation.
v=88
Answer:
c=58 and v=88
88 vegetarian wraps were sold.
