Hudson went into a restaurant and bought 8 hamburgers and 4 drinks, costing a total of $52. Levi went into the same restaurant and bought 5 hamburgers and 7 drinks, costing a total of $46. Write a system of equations that could be used to determine the price of each hamburger and the price of each drink. Define the variables that you use to write the system.

1 answer

8h + 4d = 52 , simplify to 2h + d = 13
5h + 7d = 46

2h + d = 13
5h + 7d = 46

My definition of variables should be obvious
