Someone please explain, it's most of my homework! I already did half the problem! Ellie bought 5 cups of apple juice and 7 sandwiches for $25.00. Jim bought 2 cups of apple juice and 3 sandwiches for $10.50. How much did each cup of apple juice cost? How much did each sandwich cost. I set up the equations 5a+7s=25 and 2a+3s=10.5. How do I solve them?

5 cups of apple juice and 7 sandwiches for a total of 25 bucks Jim bought 2 cups of apple juice and 3 sandwiches for $10.50Now we must form some sort of equation for the following: (1) 5a+7s=25(2) 2a +3s =10.5Let us isolate for one variable 3s= 10.5-2a s= 3.5 -2/3a Plug that into (1)5a + 7 (3.5 -2/3a) = 25 a=1.5 Hence each apple juice cost 1.5 Now we can plug that into (2) to solve for the sandwich costs= 3.5- 2/3(1.5) s=2.5 Rate positively and give brainlist

The answer that i got was 8/3
