To solve his equation start by finding how many gallons of gas you need to purchase for the total trip.
Set up an expression that divides the total distance of the trip by the miles received per gallon.
This gives you:
400 / 35
Divide to get 11.43 gallons.
To find the cost of this, multiply the total number of gallons needed to cover the trip by the cost of each gallon.
Set this up in another expression.
This results in:
11.43 x 3.30
Multiply the values to find the total cost.
This leaves you with:
37.72
So, the total cost for gas for a 400 mile trip on 35 miles per gallon is $37.72.
I hope this is correct and helps you! :)

The answer would be No solution
Answer:Well, I don't know what you got so I can't tell you if it is right.
If it works in both equations, it depends of whether your equations are set up correctly.
Here is how I would do this problem.
Let x = no. of hot dogs,y = number of sodas.
First equation is just about the number of things.
x + y = 15
Second equation is about the cost of things.
1.5 x + .75 y = 18
solve x+y = 15 for y y = 15-x substitute into second equation
1.5x + .75(15 - x) = 18
You should get the correct answer for number of hot dogs if you solve this correctly. Put your answer in the x + y =15 equation to get y. Then put both x and y into the cost equation and check your answer.
Hope this helps.
