1 answer

To write the pair of linear equations based on the given combinations, we can set up the equations as follows:

  1. For Combination 1, which includes 4 hot dogs and 2 sodas for $10, we write the equation: \[ 4h + 2s = 10 \]

  2. For Combination 2, which includes 6 hot dogs and 3 sodas for $15, we write the equation: \[ 6h + 3s = 15 \]

So the pair of linear equations that model the situation is:

  1. \( 4h + 2s = 10 \)
  2. \( 6h + 3s = 15 \)
