Mr. thomas cooked 45 hamburgers and hot dogs at a cookout. he cooked twice as many hot dogs as hamburgers.

e. write a system of equations to represent this situation.
f. solve the system algebraically. interpret the solution.
(don't have to do letter f. just if you can, only letter e. so i'll find it out) you

There are 3 variables. Amount of Hotdogs, Amount of Hamburgers, Amount of Hamburgers, and the hamburgers are repeated due to it being doubled
so the equation would be 3x=45 we would then get x=15 we apply that to 15 HotDogs 15 Hamburgers and another 15 Hamburgers.

So in total Mr.Thomas cooked 30 Hamburgers and 15 HotDogs
