Answer:

                                  See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

6x + 4y = 37               [These are the correct equations]

2x + 3y = 16.50

======

I don't see any question concerning the individual prices, x and y, but here is the answer:

-6x -9y = - 49.50  [Multiply the second equation by -3]

6x + 4y = 37        [now add it to the first equation]

     -5y   =  -12.50

       y  =  2.50     $2.50 is the price of one drink

Use this value of y in either equation to find x, the price of 1 slice of pizza.

6x + 4y = 37

6x + 4*(2.50) = 37

6x + 10 = 37

6x = 27

               x = 4.50         $4.50 is the price of one slice of pizza
