Part 1:
To find the cost of ordering "c" corndogs and "f" funnel cakes, we can set up the following algebraic expression:
Cost = (cost per corndog * number of corndogs) + (cost per funnel cake * number of funnel cakes)
In this case, the algebraic expression would be:
Cost = ($2.75 * c) + ($3.50 * f)

Part 2:
If you and your three friends want to order 2 corndogs and 1 funnel cake each, we can substitute the values into the equation from part 1.
c = 2 (because each person wants 2 corndogs)
f = 1 (because each person wants 1 funnel cake)
Cost = ($2.75 * 2) + ($3.50 * 1)
Cost = $5.50 + $3.50
Cost = $9.00

Part 3:
To solve part 2, I substituted the given values into the expression from part 1. I multiplied the cost per corndog ($2.75) by the number of corndogs (2) and added it to the cost per funnel cake ($3.50) multiplied by the number of funnel cakes (1). Finally, I calculated the total cost, which was $9.00.
