Can you help me with a math problem?

Question

At the football game they sold $4 pizzas and $2 sodas, which made the school $260. The number of sodas sold was 5 more than three times the number of pizzas sold determine the amount of pizzas sold

Answer 1

4p +2s = 260

s =5+3p

4p +2(5+3p) = 260

4p +10 +6p = 260

10p = 250

p = 25 pizzas

s=5+3p=5+3(25) = 80 sodas

check the solutions:

4(25)+2(80) = 100+160 = 260
