Hello!
Let's use 'x' to represent the cost of the burger, and 'y' to represent the cost of the hotdog.
2x + y = 482
× + 2y = 370
2x + 47 = 740
-3y = -258
y = 86 cents
2x + 86 = 482
2x = 396
x = 198
A burger costs $1.98 and a hot dog costs $.86
I hope this didn't confuse you, I'm not very good at explaining!
The value of y in 
is 6/7
<h3>How to solve for y?</h3>
The equation is given as:
Open the bracket
-3 = 7y - 9
Add 9 to both sides of the equation
7y = 6
Divide both sides by 7
y= 6/7
Hence, the value of y in is 6/7

Answer:
Current Bond price = $1155.5116
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given;
Face value; F = $1,000
Coupon payment;C = (7.3% x 1,000)/2 = 36.5 (divided by 2 because of semi annual payments)
Yield to maturity(YTM); r = 5.6%/2 = 2.8% = 0.028 (divided by 2 because of semi annual payments)
Time period;n = 13 x 2 = 26 years (multiplied by 2 because of semi annual payments)
Formula for bond price is;
Bond price = [C × [((1 + r)ⁿ - 1)/(r(r + 1)ⁿ)] + [F/(1 + r)ⁿ]
Plugging in the relevant values, we have;
Bond price = [36.5 × [((1 + 0.028)^(26) - 1)/(0.028(0.028 + 1)^(26))] + [1000/(1 + 0.028)^(26)]
Bond price = (36.5 × 18.2954) + (487.7295)
Bond price = $1155.5116

Based on the numbers we have we can assume that she saves 3 times more each week than the last (1*3=3, 3*3=9).
Following this trend we would multiply the amount she saved the third week ($9) by 3 to get $27 for the fourth week.
Then, we would multiply the amount she saved the fourth week ($27) by 3 to get $81 for the fifth week.
Finally, to figure out how much she saved in the 5 weeks, we need to add each value up to get 1+3+9+27+81= $121 saved in 5 weeks
