Respuesta :

Answer:

Each burrito meal cost 8$

Each taco meal cost 6$

Step-by-step explanation:

Johnsons= 3b +4t =48

Sloans= 6b+2t=60

multiple johnsons by -2

so, now the johnsons are -6b+-8t=-96

add that to the sloans so, -6b+6b-8t+2t=-96+60

the b's cancel eachother out, so you are left with -6t= -36

divide each side by -6 and you will get t=6

then you can pick either formula, lets say sloans this time

so, 6b + 2(6)=60 so, 6b+12=60, subtract 12 from each side, to get 48

so 6b=48, divde each side by 6 and you will get b=8
