At the county fair, the baxter family bought 6 hot dogs and 4 juice drinks for $13.50. the farley family bought 3 hot dogs and 4 juice drinks for $8.85. find the price of a hot dog and the price of a juice drink. what is the price of the hot dog and the price of the juice drink is $

The answer would be:

Hotdogs: $ 1.95

Drink: $ 1.25

Here’s how you solve it!

Let h represent hotdogs and d represent drinks

6h ➕ 4d = 16.70

-1 (3h ➕ 4d = 10.85)

-1 goes into all 3 numbers So your equation looks like this:

-3h ➖ 4d = -10.85

Then subtract the numbers and you will end up with:

3h = 5.85

Now divide both sides by 3

h = $1.95

Now to solve for d

6 (1.95) ➕4d = 16.70

11.70 ➕ 4d = 16.70

-11.70 ➕ 4d = -11.70

Once you subtract you will get:

4d = 5.00

Now divide both sides by 4

d = $1.25

Therefore hotdogs cost $1.95 and drinks cost $1.25

Hope this helps! :3

a = 11 : 4

b = 38

c = 1 for every 6
