Which class earned more money?
How much more money did that class earn?

Let P represent the number of pies sold and J represent the number of juices sold.

a)

The first equation for the sum of the sales:

P + J = 79

P = 79 - J

Next, for the sum of the amounts earned:

1.65P + 1.36J = 118.17

Substituting P,

1.65 (79 - J) + 1.36J = 118.17

J = 42

Using this value of J,

P = 79 - 42

P = 37

b)

Mr. Sanchez's class earned: 1.65 x 37 = $61.05

Mr. Kelly's class earned: 1.36 x 42 = $57.12

So Mr. Sanchez's class earned more money.

c) Mr. Sanchez's class earned:

61.05 - 57.12

= $3.93 more than Mr. Kelly's class
