Given:
(1) \(2V + 2S = 6.5\) or \(V + S = 3.25\).
(2) \(2V + 2B = 7\) or \(V + B = 3.5\)
It follows that \(B - S = 3.5 - 3.35 = 0.25\)
I. We get V + S = 3.25 so this is possible. As a result B = 1.25.
II. V + S = 3.25 again, which doesn't violate any of the equations above.
III. If B = 1.5 then V = 2, and V + S would be 3.25, so this is possible.
Hence all options are viable.

Given:
1. At Alex’s Burger Palace, customers can purchase 2 veggie burgers (v) and 2 shakes (s) for $6.50.
2. Customers can also purchase 2 veggie burgers (v) and 2 beef burgers (b) for $7.00.
Asked: Which of the following could be accurate assignments of price to food item?
2v + 2s = $6.5
2v + 2b = $7.0
2(b-s) = $0.5
b - s = $0.25
I. veggie burger: $2.25, shake: $1.00; 2v + 2s = $4.5 + $2 = $6.5; YES
II. veggie burger: $2.00, shake: $1.25; 2v + 2s = $4 + $2.5 = $6.5; YES
III. beef burger: $1.50, shake: $1.25; b-s = $0.25; YES
IMO E
