Answer: the cost of a cheeseburger is $4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of one cheeseburgers.

Let y represent the cost of one Soda.

The patriot diner sells 2 cheeseburgers and one soda for $11.00. It means that

2x + y = 11 - - - - - - - - - - - 1

She also sells 3 cheeseburgers and 2 sodas for $18.00. It means that

3x + 2y = 18 - - - - - - - - - - -2

Multiplying equation 1 by 3 and equation 2 by 2, it becomes

6x + 3y = 33

6x + 4y = 36

Subtracting, it becomes.

- y = - 3

y = 3

Substituting y = 3 into equation 1, it becomes

2x + 3 = 11

2x = 11 - 3 = 8

x = 8/2 = 4
