The Math Club sold slices of pizza, p , at a profit of $3 each and cans of soda, s , at $2 each to raise money for a trip. They sold 200 items and made a profit of $550. Write the pair of linear equations that model this situation.
Let x be the number of slices of pizza sold and y be the number of cans of soda sold.
The first equation represents the total number of items sold:
x + y = 200
The second equation represents the total profit made:
3x + 2y = 550
