determine the number of small cups sold and the number of large cups sold.

40 small cups sold and 30 large cups sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "s" the number of small cups sold and "l" the number of large cups sold.

Based on the information given in the exercise, you can set up the following system of equations:

You can use the Elimination Method to solve the system of equations:

1. Multiply the first equation by -10.

2. Add both equations.

3. Solve for "l".

Then, you get:

4. Finally, substitute the value of "l" into any original equation and solve for the variable "s" in order to find its value.

This is:

ok

step-by-step explanation:

the answer to the expression is 83
