Avendor sells hot dogs and bags of potato chips. a customer buys 4 hot dogs and 5 bags of potato chips for $15.50. another customer buys 3 hot dogs and 2 bags of potato chips for $9.00. find the cost of each item.

Let h represent the cost of hot dogs and p represent the cost of potato chips.

Customer 1: 4h + 5p = 15.50   ⇒   3(4h + 5p = 15.50)   ⇒   12h + 15p = 46.50

Customer 2: 3h + 2p = 9.00    ⇒  -4(3h + 2p = 9.00)   ⇒  -12h -  8p = -36.00

                                                                                                         7p = 10.50

                                                                                                           p = 1.50

Customer 2: 3h + 2p = 9.00   →   3h + 2(1.50) = 9.00   →   3h + 3.00 = 9.00   →   3h = 6.00   →   h = 2.00

hot dog = $1.50, potato chips = $2.00

step-by-step explanation:

the x's and the y's both go up the same amount each time, therefore it will be a linear function because it will go in a straight line when drawn on a graph.

hope this !

from the figure we get,

the x axis shows   the months and,

the y-axis shows the number of satisfied customer.

each line or each cell in upward direction (y-axis) shows 500.

the appropriate scale for the y - axis is: -

a = 2000 customers

b = 4000 customers

c = 6000 customers

d = 8000 customers

e = 10000 customers

f = 12000 customers

g = 14000 customers
