mr. sanchez’s class sold fruit pies for $1.65 each and mr. kelly’s class sold bottles of fruit juice for $1.36 each. together, the classes sold 79 items and earned $118.17 for their school. making the following system of equations:
x= amount of fruit pies sold by mr. sanchez’s class.
y= amount of fruit juice sold by mr. kelly’s class.
1.65x+1.36y=118.17
x+y=79
(a) write and solve a system of equations that model the problem. show all your work.
(b) which class earned more money? (multiply the mr. sanchez’s amount by 1.65 and mr. kelly’s amount by 1.36 to see who had raised the most money)
(c) how much more money did that class earn?
