Answer:

  • burger: $9
  • drink: $4

Step-by-step explanation:

The two purchases can be described by ...

  3b +2d = 35

  2b +d = 22

Subtracting the first equation from twice the second, we get ...

  2(2b +d) -(3b +2d) = 2(22) -(35)

  b = 9 . . . . . . . . simplify

Then ...

  2(9) +d = 22

  d = 4 . . . . . . . . . subtract 18

A burger costs $9 and a drink costs $4.
