Molly and Norachai are selling pies for a school fundraiser. Customers can buy blueberry pies and pumpkin pies. Molly sold 5 blueberry pies and 12 pumpkin pies for a total of $143. Norachai sold 10 blueberry pies and 8 pumpkin pies for a total of $142. Find the cost each of one blueberry pie and one pumpkin pie.

Blueberry costs 9 dollars

Pumpkin costs 7 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "b" represent the price of a blueberry pie

Let "p" represent the price of a pumpkin pie

Step 1: Set equation

5b + 12p = 143 ----- 1

10b + 8p = 142 ----- 2

Step 2:  Isolate 1 for "b"

5b = 143 - 12p

 ------- 3

Step 3: Substitute 3 into 2

Step 4: Subsitute p = 9 into 1 for b

Therefore a pumpkin pie costs 7 dollars while a blueberry pie costs 9 dollars
