Question

Can someone help me with this problem?

Answer 1

Steak burgers = $4.50

Fries = $2.25

Explanation:

Steak burgers = x; fries = y

-2 (3x + 2y = $18)

3 (2x + 3y = $15.75)

-6x - 4y = -36

6x + 9y = 47.25

5y = 11.25

÷5 ÷5

y = $2.25

3x + 2y = 18

3x + 2( 2.25 ) = 18

3x + 4.5 = 18

-4.5 -4.5

3x = 13.5

÷3 ÷3

x = $4.50

I hope this helps!
