Jenny paid $17 for 2 large boxes of popcorn and 3 large soft drinks. Justin paid $10 for 1 large box of popcorn and 2 large soft drinks. Which system of equations could be used to find the costs of one large box of popcorn, p, and one large soft drink, s? A. 2 p + 3 s = 17 p + 2 s = 10
B. 3 p + 2 s = 17 p + s + 10
C. 2 p + 3 x = 17 p + s = 10
D. 2 p + 3 s = 10 p + 2 s = 17

2p + 3d = 17

1p + 2d = 10

D is the correct answer

step-by-step explanation:

b

step-by-step explanation:

a difference is the result of subtraction. while each of these expressions has subtraction in it, a difference will be the result when subtraction is the last operation applied in the order of operations for the expression. this means subtraction must be outside of the parenthesis. only b has this.
