You are running a concession stand at a baseball game. You are selling pizza slices and sodas. 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. You sold a total of 344 pizza slices and sodas combined. You must report the number of pizza slices sold and the number of sodas sold. What equations did you use to solve this, where P = the number of pizza slices sold and S = the number of sodas sold? (1 point) Responses 3.50S + 1.50P = 344 and P + S = 800 3.50S + 1.50P = 344 and P + S = 800 3.50P + 1.50S = 800 and P + S = 344 3.50P + 1.50S = 800 and P + S = 344 3.50S + 1.50P = 800 and P + S = 344 3.50S + 1.50P = 800 and P + S = 344 3.50P + S = 800 and P + 1.50S = 344

Question

You are running a concession stand at a baseball game. You are selling pizza slices and sodas. 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. You sold a total of 344 pizza slices and sodas combined. You must report the number of pizza slices sold and the number of sodas sold. What equations did you use to solve this, where P = the number of pizza slices sold and S = the number of sodas sold? (1 point) Responses 3.50S + 1.50P = 344 and P + S = 800 3.50S + 1.50P = 344 and P + S = 800 3.50P + 1.50S = 800 and P + S = 344 3.50P + 1.50S = 800 and P + S = 344 3.50S + 1.50P = 800 and P + S = 344 3.50S + 1.50P = 800 and P + S = 344 3.50P + S = 800 and P + 1.50S = 344

Answer 1

The correct equations are:

3.50S + 1.50P = 800
P + S = 344

Answer 2

The correct equations that were used to solve this problem are:

1) 3.50S + 1.50P = 800 (equation 1: total revenue equation)
2) P + S = 344 (equation 2: total quantity equation)

Answer 3

To solve this problem, we need to set up a system of equations based on the given information.

Let's use P to represent the number of pizza slices sold and S to represent the number of sodas sold.

We know that each pizza slice sells for $3.50 and each soda sells for $1.50. Therefore, the total revenue from selling pizza slices and sodas can be calculated as:

Revenue = (Price per pizza slice * Number of pizza slices) + (Price per soda * Number of sodas)

Using the given information, we can write the first equation:

3.50P + 1.50S = 800

This equation represents the total revenue generated from selling pizza slices and sodas.

Next, we are told that the total number of pizza slices and sodas sold is 344. Therefore, we can set up the second equation:

P + S = 344

This equation represents the total number of pizza slices and sodas sold.

So, the correct answer is:

3.50P + 1.50S = 800 and P + S = 344
