Answer 1

Answer:

$3P+2W=62.50...(1)$

$4P+W=68.75...(2)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let P represent number of pizzas and W represent number of wings.

We have been given that Anthony went to carbone's pizzeria and bought 3 pizzas and 2 ordered of wings for $62.50.

Cost of 3 pizzas would be $3P$.

Cost of 2 wings would be $2W$.

We can represent this information in an equation as:

$3P+2W=62.50...(1)$

We are also told that Jillian went the same night purchasing 4 pizzas and 1 order of wings for $68.75. We can represent this information in an equation as:

$4P+W=68.75...(2)$

Therefore, our required system of equation would be:

$3P+2W=62.50...(1)$

$4P+W=68.75...(2)$
