You can put this solution on YOUR website! Kyle works at a donut factory, where a 10-oz cup of coffee costs 95cents, a 14-oz cup costs $1.15, and a 20-oz cup costs $1.50.
During one busy period, Kyle served 25 cups of coffee, using 354 ounces of coffee, while collecting a total of $29.35. How many cups of each size did Kyle fill?
Equations:
Quantity:: s + m + L = 25 cups
Weight:: 10s + 14m + 20L = 354 ozs
Value:: 95s + 115m + 150L = 2995
---------------------------------------
Solve the system by any method you know to get::
s = 11
m = 6
L = 8
