For a future teacher of America fundraiser, Denzel sold food as shown in the table below. He sold 11 more subs than pizzas and earned a total of $233. Write and solve a system of equations to represent this situation. Then describe what the solution means.
\n" ); document.write( " Item Selling Price
\n" ); document.write( " Pizza $5.00
\n" ); document.write( " Sub $3.00
\n" ); document.write( "---------------
\n" ); document.write( "Quantity Equation:: s = p + 11
\n" ); document.write( "Value Equation:: 3s+5p = 233
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute for \"s\" and solve for \"p\"::
\n" ); document.write( "3(p+11) + 5p = 233
\n" ); document.write( "8p + 33 = 233
\n" ); document.write( "8p = 200
\n" ); document.write( "p = 25 (# of pizzas)
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "s = p+11 = 36 (# of subs)
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "cheers,
