2) Claudia works at a sweet shop making chocolate-dipped bananas. Sometimes she drops the
chocolate-dipped bananas before she can get them to the freezer. Claudia earns 20 cents for every
frozen banana that she makes. She loses 5 cents for each frozen banana that she drops. Last
Wednesday, Claudia dipped 48 frozen bananas, but not all of them made it to the freezer. She earned
a total of $7.60. How many bananas were dropped and how many made it to the freezer? Define
your variables and write a system of equations representing this situation. Solve the system by using
either graphing, substitution, or elimination.
