Jim and Abby each bought burgers and fries from the concession stand at the fair. Jim bought 3 burgers and 2 orders of fries for

$17. Abby bought 2 burgers and 4 orders of fries for $18.
Based on the information above, how much did the concession
stand charge for each burger?

How much did it charge for each order of fries?

HINT:
b = price for a burger
f = price for french fries
Jim bought 3 burgers and 2 orders of fries for $17.

B = price for a burger
F= price for fries

Jim equals 3b + 2f = $17

Abby equals 2b + 4f = $18

Multiply the first equation by -2 & use the elimination to solve



I need would really appreciate if whomever helps me to show the steps. Thank you.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3b + 2f = 17

2b + 4f = 18

-6b - 4f = -34

6b  + 12f = 54

8f = 20

f = $2.50 fries

3b + 2(2.5) = 17

3b + 5 = 17

3b = 12

b = $4 burger

The parameters of a linear function are the slope and the y-intercept
taurus [48]

Answer:

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A linear function in slope intercept form is equal to

f(x)=mx+b

where

m is the slope or unit rate

b is the y-intercept

x is the independent variable or input value

f(x) is the dependent variable or output value

In this problem we have

f(m)=5+3m

where

m is the number of miles

f(m) is the cab company's fare in dollars

we have that

In this context

<em>Slope</em>

The slope or unit rate is equal to the cost per mile for the riders trip

The slope is $3 per mile

<em>Y-intercept</em>

The y-intercept is the cost of the riders trip when the number of miles is equal to zero, also is called the initial value.

The y-intercept is $5
