Carmen often orders party trays from her favorite Mexican food restaurant For company events. For a recent company party, she spent $58 on one burrito platter and one taco platter. For a company meeting, she spent $90 on two burrito platters and one taco platter. How much does each type of platter cost?

The cost of each buritto platters is $ 32 and cost of each taco platter is $ 26

Let "a" be the cost of each burrito platters

Let "b" be the cost of each taco platters

Carmen spent $58 on one burrito bladder and one taco platter

Therefore we frame a equation as:

one burrito bladder x cost of each burrito platters + one taco platter x cost of each taco platters = 58

a + b = 58 ---------- eqn 1

For a company meeting, she spent $90 on two burrito platters and one taco platter

two burrito platters x cost of 1 burrito platter + one taco platter x cost of 1 taco platter = 90

2a + b = 90 ----------- eqn 2

Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2

Subtract eqn 1 from eqn 2

2a + b -a - b = 90 - 58

a = 32

Substitute a = 32 in eqn 1

32 + b = 58

b = 26

Hence, cost of 1 burrito = $32  and the cost of 1 taco platter = $26
