Question

Four brothers each bought two hot dogs and a bag of chips at the football concession stand. If the bag of chips was $1.25, and the total was $18.20, what was the price of one hot dog?
Remember money is rounded to the nearest hundredth.

Answer 1

Answer:

The price of one hot dog is $1.65

Step-by-step explanation:

8h+4c= x

c= 1.25

x= 18.20

8h + 4(1.25)= 18.20

8h + 5 = 18.20

( subtract 5 from both sides of the equation)

8h = 13.20

( divide both sides by 8 to isolate the variable)

h = 1.65

so each hot dog is 1.65

Answer 2

I think it’s 1.65 just like the person above me
