3x + 2y = 540
x + y = 210
Step-by-step explanation:
Giving the following information:
At the county fair, 210 snow cones were sold for a total of $540. Large snow cones (x) cost $3.00 each and small snow cones (y) cost $2.00 each.
We can establish the following system of equations:
x= number of large snow cones sold
y= number of small snow cones sold
3*x + 2*y = 540
x + y = 210
