Answer:

sandwich = 6.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s = sandwich price

d = drink price

6s + 4d = 53

4s + 6d = 47

Multiply the first equation by 3

18s + 12d = 159

Multiply the second equation by -2

-4s - 12d = -94

Add these equations together

18s + 12d = 159

-8s - 12d = -94

--------------------------

10s = 65

Divide by 10

s = 65/10

s =6.5
