Based on the two different purchases, you can write equations for the price of a hotdog (h) and that of a drink (d). These equations can be solved by your favorite method to find the individual prices.

... 6h +4d = 17.00 . . . . . . Carl's purchase

... 3h +4d = 12.50 . . . . . . Susan's purchase

We can see that the difference in purchase cost (of $4.50) is due entirely to the difference in the number of hotdogs (3). Thus, the price of a hotdog must be

... $4.50/3 = $1.50

The 4 drinks are then ($12.50 -4.50) = $8, so must be $2 each. You don't need to figure the cost of a drink to determine that the appropriate answer choice is ...

... D. $1.50 for a hot dog; $2.00 for a drink.

Write three different equations that have x=5 as a solution
svlad2 [7]

Answer: The three different equations will be

x+3=8\\\\2x-8=2\\\\4x-4=16

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to write three equation that have x = 5 as a solution:

1) First equation will be

x+3=8\\\\x=8-3\\\\x=5

2) Second equation will be

2x-8=2\\\\2x=8+2\\\\2x=10\\\\x=\frac{10}{2}\\\\x=5

3) Third equation will be

4x-4=16\\\\4x=16+4\\\\4x=20\\\\x=\frac{20}{4}\\\\x=5

Hence, the three different equations will be

x+3=8\\\\2x-8=2\\\\4x-4=16
