deltamath.com Question Watch Video Show Examples At a particular restaurant, each slider has 350 calories and each onion ring has 40 calories. A combination meal with sliders and onion rings has a total of 11 sliders and onion rings altogether and contains 1370 calories. Write a system of equations that could be used to determine the number of sliders in the combination meal and the number of onion rings in the combination meal. Define the variables that you use to write the system. Answer Attempt 1 out of 2 Let $=$ Let $=$ System of Equations: Submit Answer
Solution
Step 1 ：Define two variables, s for the number of sliders and o for the number of onion rings.
Step 2 ：Write the first equation to represent the total number of sliders and onion rings: \(s + o = 11\).
Step 3 ：Write the second equation to represent the total number of calories: \(350s + 40o = 1370\).
Step 4 ：Solve the system of equations to find the values of s and o.
Step 5 ：Final Answer: The system of equations is \(\boxed{s + o = 11}\) and \(\boxed{350s + 40o = 1370}\), where s represents the number of sliders and o represents the number of onion rings.
