Solve sets of equations using MATLAB

Last month Mario bought 26 cups of coffee and 37 cups of tea from the studio canteen. They cost him $44.23 altogether. Luigi bought 15 cups of coffee and 48 cups of tea and they cost him $47.32 altogether. How much do cups of tea and coffee cost in cents?

Solution

Let, tea cost x cents and coffee cost y cents

So,

26y+37x=4423

15y+48x=4732

Solving gives

x~81.8 cents

y~53.7 cents
