At the local harvest festival Marty bought 2 pumpkin pie slices and 2 cups of hot chocolate $10.00. Patty bought 4 slices of pie and 5 cups of hot chocolate for $22.50. How much is a slice of pumpkin pie and how much is a cup of hot chocolate?

1 cup of hot chocolate is $2.5

1 slice of pumpkin pie is $2.5

Represent Pumpkin Pie with P and Hot Chocolate with C:

Marty:

Patty:

So, we have the following set of equation:

-------- (1)

-------- (2)

Multiply the first equation by 2

-------- (3)

Subtract (3) from (2)

--------------------------

Substitute 2.5 for H in

Divide through by 2

Hence, 1 cup of hot chocolate is $2.5 and 1 slice of pumpkin pie is $2.5
