asked • 01/10/20Chase and Sarah went to the candy store Chase bought five pieces of fudge and three pieces of bubblegum for a total of 5.70. Sara bought 2 pieces of fudge and 10 pieces of bubble gum for a total of 3.60. Which system of equations could be used to determine the cost of 1 piece of fudge (f) and 1 piece of bubble gum (g)?

f = cost of 1 fudge
g = cost of 1 bubblegum
Chase's purchase: 5f + 3g = 5.70
Sarah's purchase: 2f + 10g = 3.60
The system is
5f + 3g = 5.70
2f + 10g = 3.60

If all you want is the system of equations, this is it. The question did not ask for a solution.01/10/20
