The school cafeteria sells two kinds of wraps: vegetarian and chicken. The vegetarian wrap costs $1.00 and the chicken wrap costs $1.80. Today they made $98.89 from the 70 wraps sold. How many of the wraps sold were vegetarian

Answer provided by our tutors

let


v = the number of vegetarian wraps

c = the number of chicken wraps


Today they made $98.89 from the 70 wraps sold


1*v + 1.80*c = 98.89


v + c = 70


by solving the system of equations we find


c = 36.11


v = 33.89
