7h + 6b = 35.50
5h + 6b = 30.50
The difference between the 2 totals spent is $5, and there were the same number of burgers, but 2 fewer hotdogs. So $5/2 = $2.50, the cost of a hot dog. Substitute that into the equations to solve for burgers (b)
5(2.50) + 6b = 30.50
12.50 + 6b = 30.50
6b = 18
b = 3
Check the work:
7(2.50) + 6(3) =
17.50 + 18 = 35.50
Answer: Ethan will have to spend 2 hours reading if 14 pages are left to read
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equation
P=-30h+74
where p =number of pages left to read and
h= the number of hours he has spent reading
Therefore , if Ethan has 14 pages left to read, then the number of hours Ethan will have to read will be
P=-30h+74
14= -30h + 74
30h= 74-14
30h= 60
h = 60/30
h =2 hours
Ethan will have to spend 2 hours reading if 14 pages are left to read
