Cole spent $55.00 buying songs and movies at an online store that charges $1.25 for each song and $2.75 for each movie. he purchased a total of 26 song and movies combined. write and solve a system of equations that represent this situation

If you would like to write and solve a system of equations that represent the situation above, you can do this using the following steps:

s ... number of songs
m ... number of movies

$55.00 = $1.25 * s + $2.75 * m
55 = 1.25 * s + 2.75 * m

26 songs and movies = s + m
26 = s + m
s = 26 - m

55 = 1.25 * s + 2.75 * m
55 = 1.25 * (26 - m) + 2.75 * m
55 = 1.25 * 26 - 1.25 * m + 2.75 * m
55 - 32.5 = 1.5 * m
22.5 = 1.5 * m
m = 22.5 / 1.5 = 15 movies

s = 26 - m = 26 - 15 = 11 songs

The correct result would be 15 movies and 11 songs.
