Answer:
I think B
Step-by-step explanation:
Let <em>h</em> represent the cost of hot dogs and <em>p</em> represent the cost of potato chips.
Customer 1: 4h + 5p = 15.50 ⇒ 3(4h + 5p = 15.50) ⇒ 12h + 15p = 46.50
Customer 2: 3h + 2p = 9.00 ⇒ -4(3h + 2p = 9.00) ⇒ <u> -12h - 8p = -36.00</u>
7p = 10.50
p = 1.50
Customer 2: 3h + 2p = 9.00 → 3h + 2(1.50) = 9.00 → 3h + 3.00 = 9.00 → 3h = 6.00 → h = 2.00
Answer: hot dog = $1.50, potato chips = $2.00
