Here are the equations that are represented by the scenarios:

4x + 2y = $14 (Joe)
3x + y = $9 (Becca) or y = 9 - 3x

To find the cost of each burger and fry you will solve the second equation for y and substitute it in for the y in the first equation.  This will put everything in terms of x, the price of a fry.

4x + 2(9 - 3x) = $14
4x + 18 - 6x = 14
-2x +18 = 14
     -18     -18
    <u>-2x</u> = <u>-4</u>
    -2      -2
     x = 2

Fry cost $2, and burgers cost (9 - 3 x 2) or $3.

Answer:

b

Step-by-step explanation:

In general

Given

y = f(x) then y = f(Cx) is a horizontal stretch/ compression in the x- direction

• If C > 1 then compression

• If 0 < C < 1 then stretch

Consider corresponding points on the 2 graphs

(2, 2 ) → (4, 2 )

(4, - 2 ) → (8, - 2 )

Indicating a stretch in the x- direction.

y = f(\frac{x}{2} ) with C = \frac{1}{2} , that is 0 < C < 1

stretches the graph in the x- direction by a factor of 2

Thus

y = f(\frac{x}{2} ) → b
