Please help with this question. Answer by nyc_function(2741) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 0.25x+0.30y= 62.75
x=251 y =0
x=239 y =10
x= 227 y =20
and so on....
For every increase of 10 in number of pretzels sold, there will be a decrease of 12 candy bars.
Shouldn't there be a total amount of Candy bars and pretzels?
