Answer:

cost of nachos = $3.45

Cost of tacos = $1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = cost of nachos

y = cost of tacos

11x + 18y = 64.95 (1)

6x + 15y = 43.20 (2)

Multiply (1) by 6 and (2) by 11 to eliminate x

66x + 108y = 389.70

66x + 165y = 475.20

Subtract to eliminate x

165y - 108y = 475.20 - 389.70

57y = 85.50

y = 85.50/57

y = 1.5

Substitute y = 1.5 to find x

11x + 18y = 64.95 (1)

11x + 18(1.5) = 64.95

11x + 27 = 64.95

11x = 64.95 - 27

11x = 37.95

x = 37.95/11

x = 3.45

cost of nachos = $3.45

Cost of tacos = $1.5
