Answer:

$11

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up the system of equations

18x + 9y = 45

20x + 12y = 52

Let's try to get y on one side for the first equation.

9y=45-18x

y=5-2x

Now substitute it into the second equation.

20x + 12(5-2x) = 52

20x + 60 - 24x = 52

-4x = -8

x = 2

Now solve for y using the first equation.

18(2) + 9y = 45

36 + 9y = 45

9y = 9

y = 1

Now that we know x and y we can solve for the price of 4 hot dogs and 3 drinks.

4(2) + 3(1) = z

8 + 3 = z

11 = z

That means that the price is 11 dollars.

The Jackson family went out to dinner

vovikov84 [41]

Answer: Amount that the Smith family need to pay for the meal including tax and tip = 53.47.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Price of the meal = 43.45

Rate of sales tax = 7%

Amount becomes after the sales tax is given by

$\frac{7}{100}\times 43.45\\\\\frac{304.15}{100}\\\\=3.0415\\\\\text{Amount}=43.45+3.0415=46.4915$
