what is the answer

Question

Bill and Mary Ann went to the Viola bakery. Bill bought 5 danishes and 8 filled donuts for $12.00. Mary Ann bought 6 of each for ​$10.44. What is the price of each type of​ pastry

Answer 1

5x + 8y = 12

0

6x+6y = 10.44

30x +48y = 72

30x +30y =52.20

18y = 19.80

y = $1.10 for a donut

5x = 12 - 8.8 = 3.2

x = 3.2/5 = .64 = 64 cents for a danish
