Answer 1

Answer:

7x + 2.25y = 440

Step-by-step explanation:

Ashlee sells lunches for $7.00 and drinks for $2.25.

One busy Saturday, Ashlee sold $440.00 worth of lunches and drinks.

The number of lunches sold is x.

The number of drinks sold is y.

The appropriate equation will be:

= (7 × x) + (2.25 × y)

7x + 2.25y = 440
