At a snack bar, 3 hamburgers and a small drink cost $8.75. the cost of 2 hamburgers and 2 small drinks is $7.50. what is the cost of 4 hamburgers and 3 small drinks?

13.75

Step-by-step explanation:

3b + d = 8.75

2b + 2d = 7.50

(3b + d = 8.75) times 2

(2b + 2d = 7.50) times -3

6b + 2d = 17.5

-6b + (-6d) = -22.5

the b's cancel out, 2d - 6d = -4d and 17.5 - 22.5 = -5

-4d = -5 Divide it and d = 1.25

then plug in 1.25 for d.

2b + 2(1.25) = 7.50

2b + 2.5 = 7.50

2b = 5

b= 2.5

3(2.5) + 1.25 = 8.75 ? Yes.

2(2.5) + 2(1.25) = 7.50 ? Yes.

4(2.5) + 3(1.25) = 13.75.
