Ashley and Gabby bought lunch from the food trucks on Sugar Day. Ashley bought 3 tacos and a drink for $7. Gabby bought 2 drinks and 2 tacos for $8. How much does 1 taco cost? A taco costs__

$1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

This would be solved using a simultaneous equation

let tacos = t

drink = d

3t + d = 7 -- eqn 1

2t + 2d = 8 -- eqn 2

Multiply equation 1 by 2 to derive equation 3

6t + 2d = 14 eqn 3

Substract equation 2 from equation 3

6t + 2d = 14 -- eqn 3

         -

2t + 2d = 8 -- eqn 2

= 4t = 6

solve for t

6/4 = 1.5

= $1.5

c 1 hour

step-by-step explanation:

m = 2e

m = 2 so 2 = 2e

1 = e
