Question

Joe and Julie are selling pies for a School Fundraiser. Joe sold 5 Blueberry pies and 3 Strawberry pies for a total of $65. Julie sold 3 Blueberry and 6 Strawberry pies for a total of $70.50. What is the total Cost for each type of pie?

Answer 1

Jesus:

Let B = number of blueberry pies sold

S = number of strawberry pies sold

We know:

5*B + 3*S = 65

3*B + 6*S = 70.50

Solve this system of equations. Let me know if you need any help!

Answer 2

5b + 3s = 65.00

3b + 6s = 70.50

10b + 6b = 130.00

3b + 6b = 70.50

7b = 59.50

b = 8.50

What does a strawberry pie cost?
