Pablo ran a concession stand last saturday and made $79.80 from selling a total of 53 hot dogs and hamburgers. each hot dog sold for $1.40 and each hamburger sold for $1.80. which system of equations can be used to determine the number of hot dogs, x, and hamburgers, y, that were sold?

a. 1.4x + 1.8y = 79.8
39x + 14y = 53

b. 0.7x + 0.9y = 79.8
x + y = 3.2

c. 1.4x + 1.8y = 79.8
x + y = 53

d. 2.8x + 3.6y = 3.2
x + y = 546

C. 1.4x + 1.8y = 79.8

x + y = 53

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem statement gives rise to two equations, one for the amount of money made, and one for the number of items sold. If x and y represent the numbers of items, and if 53 items were sold, then one of the equations will be ...

x + y = 53

This is sufficient to let you choose the correct answer.

___

Since "x" items were sold for $1.40 and "y" items were sold for $1.80, the sales revenue will be the sum of products of price and quantity:

1.40x +1.80y = 79.80

This confirms the choice of answer.

all group life insurance is term insurance. actually it is annual renewable term and it is rated on the average age and claims experience of the entire group, which is called "experience rating." remember, this type of insurance has a 31-day grace period and is convertible to whole life upon leaving employment. a contributory group plan requires that both the employer and the employees pay part of the premium. at least 75% of those eligible must participate, so the group is sure to get most of the healthy employees as well as those that are sick.
