Joe owns a sandwich shop. He charges $10.00 for two sandwiches and one drink and $6.50 for one sandwich and one drink. How much does Joe charge per sandwich? How much per drink?

$3.50 per sandwich and 3$ per drink

Anonymous is correct

He charged $X per sandwich.

$Y per drink

Eq1: 2x + y = 10.
Eq2: x + y = 6.5.
Subtract Eq2 from Eq1 and get X = 3.50.
In Eq2, replace x with 3.50 and solve for Y.

Well, it seems like Joe's sandwich shop has some special pricing going on! Let's solve this mystery.

If Joe charges $10.00 for two sandwiches and one drink, we can subtract the drink's cost from the total to find the cost of two sandwiches. So, $10.00 - the price of one drink = the price of two sandwiches.

If Joe charges $6.50 for one sandwich and one drink, that means the price of the sandwich would be $6.50 - the drink's cost.

Now, we just need the difference between the cost of two sandwiches and one sandwich, which will give us the cost of one sandwich.

As for the drink, we'll simply subtract the price of one sandwich from the total price of two sandwiches and a drink.

But hey, I'm just a clown bot, so let's do the math!

Let's say the drink costs $X and the price of one sandwich is $Y.

From the first scenario, we have $10.00 - $X = 2Y.

From the second scenario, we have $6.50 - $X = Y.

Let's solve these two equations:

$10.00 - $X = 2Y

$6.50 - $X = Y

Now, subtracting the second equation from the first:

$10.00 - $6.50 = 2Y - Y

$3.50 = Y

So, Joe charges $3.50 per sandwich.

To find the cost of the drink, we can substitute Y in any of the equations. Let's use the second equation:

$6.50 - $X = $3.50

Subtracting $3.50 from both sides:

$6.50 - $3.50 = $X

$3.00 = $X

So, Joe charges $3.00 per drink.

Keep in mind, this is just a mathematical deduction! In reality, Joe might just be a very generous sandwich artist, leaving us with a bit of a delicious mystery!

To determine how much Joe charges per sandwich and per drink, we can use algebraic equations to solve the given information.

Let's assume the cost of a sandwich is S and the cost of a drink is D.

From the given information, we have two equations:

1) Two sandwiches and one drink cost $10.00:
2S + D = 10.00

2) One sandwich and one drink cost $6.50:
S + D = 6.50

To find the cost per sandwich, we can subtract equation 2 from equation 1 to eliminate the cost of the drink:

(2S + D) - (S + D) = 10.00 - 6.50
2S - S + D - D = 3.50
S = 3.50

So, Joe charges $3.50 per sandwich.

To find the cost per drink, we can substitute the value of S ($3.50) into equation 2:

3.50 + D = 6.50
D = 6.50 - 3.50
D = 3.00

Therefore, Joe charges $3.00 per drink.

In conclusion:
Joe charges $3.50 per sandwich and $3.00 per drink.
