Question

Ms. Golding managed to get discount tickets to a BTS concert. At the concert venue, a hot dog costs $4 each, while bottles of soda costs $3 each. A student spent a total of $33 after buying 3 hot dogs.
part A
Using "x" for number of hot dogs and "y" for number of bottles of soda, write a linear equation in standard form to show the total cost the student spent.



Part B
how many bottles of soda did this student buy? Include units. Show WORK separately algebraically.

Answer 1

Each hot dog is x, and costs $4. Each soda is y, and costs $3.

A.

4x + 3y = 33

B.

4x + 3y = 33

4 * 3 + 3y = 33

12 + 3y = 33

3y = 21

y = 7

7 bottles of soda.
