    160 cups of lemonade and 80 packages of cookies.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    l = lemonade

    c = cookies

    l+1.5c=280

    2c=l

    Substitute.

    3.5c=280

    Simplify.

    c=80

    Substitute into the second equation.

    l=160.

    Plug it back into the equations to check.
