Problema Solution
Pizzas were 2 dollars hamburgers were 6 dollars if there were two more than twice the number of pizzas and the total was 84 dollars how many pizzas and hamburgers were ther
Answer provided by our tutors
let
h = the number of hamburgers
p = the number of pizzas
if there are two more hamburgers than twice the number of pizzas
h = 2 + 2p
the total was 84 dollars
2p + 6h = 84
plug h = 2 + 2p into the last equation
2p + 6(2 + 2p) = 84
by solving we find
p = 5.14
click here to see the step by step solution of the equation
h = 2 + 2*5.14
h = 12.28
