Let the number of hamburgers sold be "h" and the number of cheeseburgers be "2h" as it was two time as the humbugers .form equation frome it '2h+h=387".comp the like terms which gives you 3h=387 divide each side by 3 which gives you h=129 which is equal to the number hambyrgers .multiply 129 by 2 to get the number of cheeseburgers which is 258
Let
be the price of an ear of corn. So, six ears of corn cost
