A cheeseburger costs 4 and a taco costs 2, between the friends one bought one mroe cheeseburger and that upped the price by $4 so if you take 4 away from 12 you’ll get 8 and divide that by 4 and you’ll get 2 (the costs of 1 taco)

Answer:

Equation 1 - x + 4y = 12

Equation 2 - 2x + 4x = 16

Cost of 1 Cheeseburger - $4

Cost of 1 Taco - $2

Explanation:

Cheeseburger(x) and Taco(y)

x + 4y = 12 and 2x + 4y = 16

x = - 4y + 12

2(- 4y + 12) + 4y = 16

- 8y + 24 + 4y = 16

- 4y = - 8

y = 2

x + 4(2) = 12

x + 8 = 12

x = 4
