The correct equations to solve this problem are:
3.50P + 1.50S = 800
P + S = 344
The correct equations to solve this problem are:
1. 3.50S + 1.50P = 800 - This equation represents the total amount of money earned from selling pizza slices and sodas.
2. P + S = 344 - This equation represents the total number of pizza slices and sodas sold.
Therefore, the correct response is:
3.50S + 1.50P = 800 and P + S = 344
To solve this problem, you need to set up a system of equations based on the given information.
Let P be the number of pizza slices sold and S be the number of sodas sold.
First, you know that each pizza slice sells for $3.50 and each soda sells for $1.50. At the end of the night, you made a total of $800. This can be represented by the equation:
3.50P + 1.50S = 800
Next, you sold a total of 344 pizza slices and sodas combined, which can be represented by the equation:
P + S = 344
So the correct equations to be used to solve this problem are:
3.50P + 1.50S = 800 and P + S = 344
