The Jimenez family is bringing 12 packages of hamburger and hotdog buns to the neighborhood picnic. The hamburger buns cost $2.00 per package. The hot-dog buns cost $1.50 per package. They spent $20 for the buns. Create and solve a system of equations that can be used to find the number of packages of each type of bun purchased.

The system of equations is x + y = 12 and 2x + 1.5y = 20

The number of packages of the hamburger is 4

The number of packages of the hotdog is 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that they bringing x packages of hamburger y packages of hotdog

∵ x represents the number of packages of hamburger

∵ y represents the number of packages of hotdog

∵ Jimenez family is bringing 12 packages of hamburger and hotdog buns

∴ x + y = 12 ⇒ (1)

∵ The hamburger buns cost $2.00 per package

∵ The hot-dog buns cost $1.50 per package

∵ They spent $20 on the buns

∴ 2x + 1.5y = 20 ⇒ (2)

The system of equations is x + y = 12 and 2x + 1.5y = 20

Let us solve it to find x and y

→ Multiply equation (1) by -1.5 to make the coefficients of y equal in

   values and different in signs to eliminate it

∵ -1.5(x) + -1.5(y) = -1.5(12)

∴ -1.5x - 1.5y = -18 ⇒ (3)

→ Add equations (2) and (3)

∵ (2x + -1.5) + (1.5y + -1.5y) = (20 + -18)

∴ 0.5x = 2

→ Divide both sides by 0.5 to find x

∴ x = 4

→ Substitute the value of x in equation (1) or (2) to find y

∵ 4 + y = 12

→ Subtract 4 from both sides

∴ 4 - 4 + y = 12 - 4

∴ y = 8

∴ The number of packages of the hamburger is 4

∴ The number of packages of the hotdog is 8

10000
