a.
h = 2c - 3

b.
3h + 1.5c = 201

c.
We have a system of equations from part a and b.
h = 2c - 3 (equation 1)
3h + 1.5c = 201 (equation 2)

We use substitution method to solve this system.
Substitute equation 1 in equation 2 to get
3h + 1.5c = 201
>> 3(2c - 3) + 1.5c = 201
>> 6c - 9 + 1.5c = 201
>> 7.5c = 201 + 9
>> 7.5c = 210
>> c = 210 / 7.5
>> c = 28

Plug this value back in equation 1 to get
h = 2c - 3
>> h = 2(28) - 3 = 56 - 3 = 53

So, c = 28 and h = 53 implies that 28 corndogs and 53 hotdogs were sold.
