two teachers are going to a conference for a fewdays.Mrs.Jerrerson plane on spending $502 on 14 meals and 4 nights in a hotel. Mrs.Lloyd plans on spending $370 on 10 meals and 3 nights in a hotel. How much are they planning on spending pre meal and pre night for a hotel
-----------------------
Equations:
4n + 14m = 502
3n + 10m = 370
-----------------
Solve the system by any means you know to get:
n = $80 (price per night for a hotel room)
m = $13 (price per meal)
