a.
b=cost per burrioto
t=cost per taco
b.
3 burritos and 4 tacos costs 11.33; 3b+4t=11.33
9 burritos and 4 tacos costs 22.07; 9b+4t=22.07
c. solve
3b+4t=11.33
9b+4t=22.07
mulitply irst equation by -1 and add to 2nd to cancel t's
-3b-4t=-11.33
9b+4t=22.07 +
6b+0t=10.74
6b=10.74
divide both sides by 6
b=1.79
subsitute back
3b+4t=11.33
3(1.79)+4t=11.33
5.37+4t=11.33
4t=5.96
divide both sides by 4
t=1.49
solution: 1 taco costs $1.49 and 1 burrito costs $1.79
