last weekend the restraunt sold 16 orders of the single mucho variety and 22 orders of the double mucho. If the restaurant sold $231 worth of beef burritos last weekend, and the single much kind cost $1 less than the double macho, how much did each type of burrito cost?

Question

a single mucho costs $s$, so selling 16 of them brings in $16s$

a double mucho costs $d$, so selling 22 of them brings in $22d$

single + double = total of $231 

a single costs $1 less than a double, so $s = d - 1$

You should be able to complete the equations from my description, and solve for the two prices.
