10 bags of chips and 8 soda cans cost $15. 5 bags of chips and 5 soda cans cost $8. How much does a bag of chips cost? How much does a can of soda cost?

One bag of chips costs $1.10

One can of soda costs $0.50

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Create a system of equations (b = bags of chips | s = soda)

10b + 8b = 15

5b + 5s = 8

2. Use the Elimination method by multiplying 5b+5s=8 by -2

10b + 8b = 15

-2(5b + 5s = 8)

=

10b + 8b = 15

- 10b - 10s = -16

(10b and -10b will cancel out, so you will only have s left)

=

-2s = -1

Divide by 2

Soda = 1/2, or $0.50

3. Plug in S (0.50) into an equation above and get B by itself

5b + 5(0.50) = 8

=

5b + 2.5 = 8

    - 2.5    -2.5

5b = 5.5

Bag of Chips = $1.10

answer: if you weigh 60 pounds on earth, on the moon you will weigh about 10 pounds. if you weigh 120 pounds on earth, you will weigh about 20 pounds on the moon. since weight is caused by the mass of two objects that are near each other, the bigger the objects, the more the force of gravity.

step-by-step explanation: if you weigh 60 pounds on earth, on the moon you will weigh about 10 pounds. if you weigh 120 pounds on earth, you will weigh about 20 pounds on the moon. since weight is caused by the mass of two objects that are near each other, the bigger the objects, the more the force of gravity.
