The snack bar sauce hotdogs for three dollars each and bags of popcorn for two dollars each
the teen's mom bought 18 snacks and spent $47 how many bags of popcorn and how many hotdogs did she buy?
:
let h = no. of hot dogs
let p = no. of bags of popcorn
:
Write an equation for each statement
"the teen's mom bought 18 snacks"
h + p = 18
p = (18-h)
"hotdogs for three dollars each and bags of popcorn for two dollars each... spent $47"
3h + 2p = 47
replace p with (18-h)
3h + 2(18-h) = 47
3h + 36 - 2h = 47
3h - 2h = 47 - 36
h = 11 hot dogs bought
:
:
:
Check: h=11, therefore p=7
3(11) + 2(7) =
33 + 14 = 47
