If it costs a total of $9 to buy 1 hot dog and 2 bottles of water and it costs a total of $22 to buy 3 hot dogs and 4
bottles of water, how much does a single bottle of water cost?

Answer 1

Answer:

$2.50

Step-by-step explanation:

1h + 2w = 9

3h + 4w = 22

Multiply the first expression x 3

3h + 6w = 27

Subtract the 2 equations

3h + 6w = 27

3h + 4w = 22

2w = 5, w = 2.5
