Jaxson and his children went into a movie theater and he bought $42.50 worth of drinks and candies. Each drink costs $6 and each candy costs $3.25. He bought a total of 8 drinks and candies altogether. Write a system of equations that could be used to determine the number of drinks and the number of candies that Jaxson bought. Define the variables that you use to write the system.

6d+3.25c=42.50

d+c=8

Step-by-step explanation:

let's say d is for drinks and c is for candy.

each drink is $6

each candy is $3.25

the porblem told us our total $42.50

so if we mulitpy the cost of each drink and candy together

6d+3.25c=42.50

and

Since he bought a total of 8 drinks and candies, we know that d+c=8
