Answer:

[tex]x = 7[/tex] --- toppings

[tex]y = 27[/tex] ---- amount

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]y \to\ amount[/tex]

[tex]x \to\ topping[/tex]

The first deal is:

[tex]y = 6 + 3x[/tex]

The second is:

[tex]y = 20 + x[/tex]

Required

The value of  x and y [for which both deals are equal]

We have:

[tex]y = 6 + 3x[/tex]

[tex]y = 20 + x[/tex]

Equate both

[tex]y=y[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]6 + 3x = 20 + x[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]3x - x = 20 - 6[/tex]

[tex]2x =14[/tex]

Divide by 2

[tex]x = 7[/tex]

Substitute [tex]x = 7[/tex] in [tex]y = 20 + x[/tex]

[tex]y = 20 + 7[/tex]

[tex]y = 27[/tex]
