Answer:

6 drinks

4 candies

Step-by-step explanation:

set up a system of equations

d = drinks

c = candies

d + c = 10

5d + 4.5c = 48

substitute d = 10 - c for the d in the in the second equation

5(10-c) + 4.5c = 48

50 - 5c + 4.5c = 48

50 - .5c = 48

-.5c = -2

c = -2/-.5 = 4

d = 10 - 4 = 6
