Kevin and his friends are at a baseball game. Kevin decides to buy sandwiches and bottled water for his friends. Each sandwich
costs $5.19, and each bottle of water costs $2.46. Kevin spends a total of $48.90 on sandwiches and water for his friends, and he
purchases five more sandwiches than bottles of water.
Create a system of equations to model the situation above, and use it to determine if the solution of the system is viable.
A. Kevin cannot purchase a negative number of sandwiches or a negative number of bottles of water; therefore the solution
is not viable for the given situation.
B. Kevin purchases three sandwiches and eight bottles of water; therefore, the solution is viable for the given situation.
C. Kevin cannot purchase a negative number of sandwiches; therefore, the solution is not viable for the given situation.
D. Kevin purchases eight sandwiches and three bottles of water, therefore, the solution is viable for the given situation.
