Answer:

Pizzas: $8, Breadsticks: $3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Write an equation.

Let the variables p = price of pizzas, and b = price of breadsticks

The equation: 3p + 2b = $30 for the first customer. The equation: 4p + 3b = $41 for the other customer.

2. Use the Elimination Method.

 (4p+3b=41) x3 =  12p+9b=123

- (3p+2b=30) x4 = 12p+8b = 120

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

                                     8b = 3

Pizzas: $8

Breadsticks: $3
