Answer: Each burger costs $4 and each order of fries costs $2.5 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the cost of each burger and y be the cost of each orders of fries.

Given : Jim bought 3 burgers and 2 orders of fries for $17.

Abby bought 2 burgers and 4 orders of fries for $18.

Then, the system of linear equation will become :

3x+2y=17-------(1)\\\\2x+4y=18-------(2)

Divide by 2 on each sides of equation (2), we get

x+2y=9-------(3)

Eliminate equation (3) from (1), we get

2x=8

Divide by 2 on both sides , we get

x=4

Put value of x in (3), we get

4+2y=9

Subtract 3  both sides, we gte

2y=5

Divide by 2 both sides , we get

y=2.5

Hence, each burger costs $4 and each order of fries costs $2.5 .

Naddik [55]

Answer:  134 miles

Step-by-step explanation:  

f(m) = 16.95 + 0.92m

140.23 = 16.95 + 0.92m

0.92m = 140.23 - 16.95

0.92m = 123.28

m = 123.28/0.92

m = 134 miles
