Answer: Hamburger: $6.5

Drink ;$2

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, we have to write an equation for each one

<em>Christoper</em>

  • 5h +10d = $52.50

Where :

h = price of a hamburger

d = price of a drink

<em>Wyatt:</em>

  • 2h + 9d = $31

Now we have the system of equations:

5h+10d=52.50(1)

2h+9d=31 (2)

Isolating "h" from (1)

5h = 52.50 -10d

h = (52.50 -10d)/5

h = 10.5 -2d

Replacing "h" in (2)

2h+9d=31

2(10.5-2d) +9d=31

21 -4d +9d=31

-4d+9d=31-21

5d= 10

d= 10/5

d= $2

Finally, replacing d in (1)

5h+10d=52.50

5h+10(2) =52.50

5h+20=52.50

5h=52.50-20

5h=32.50

h= 32.50/5

h=$6.5
