Answer:

bag of chips = 2

cookies=1

Step-by-step explanation:

b = bags of chip cost

c = cookie cost

7b+3c = 17

3b +1c = 7

Multiply the second equation by -3

-9b -3c = -21

Add this to the first equation

7b+3c = 17

-9b -3c = -21

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

-2b    = -4

Divide by -2

-2b/-2 = -4/-2

b = 2

Now find c

3b +1c = 7

3(2)+c = 7

6+c =7

c = 7-6

c=1
