Basically, the higher the price an item is the more you will be taking off of it if it is 10 percent off. For example, at $50, 10 percent off is $5, but at $55, it’s $5.50. There is more to take away, making the final price less than the original. Hope that make sense!

Answer:
Meryann brought 6 friends to the party
Step-by-step explanation:
y=9x+24
24 is your constant because the cost for all the pizza won't change
9x will change, so x represents the number of friends she brought
and y will be 78 because it's the total amount of money
78=9x+24
all you have to do is solve this equation
54=9x
x=6
a.
h = 2c - 3
b.
3h + 1.5c = 201
c.
We have a system of equations from part a and b.
h = 2c - 3 (equation 1)
3h + 1.5c = 201 (equation 2)
We use substitution method to solve this system.
Substitute equation 1 in equation 2 to get
3h + 1.5c = 201
>> 3(2c - 3) + 1.5c = 201
>> 6c - 9 + 1.5c = 201
>> 7.5c = 201 + 9
>> 7.5c = 210
>> c = 210 / 7.5
>> c = 28
Plug this value back in equation 1 to get
h = 2c - 3
>> h = 2(28) - 3 = 56 - 3 = 53
So, c = 28 and h = 53 implies that <u>28 corndogs</u> and 53 hotdogs were sold.
