Select the TWO equations that fit the scenario described above.

A
2x+y=6.50

B
6.50x+17.75y=5

C
2x+5y=24.25

D
5x+5y=6.50

E
5x+5y=17.75

Answer 1

Answer:

correct answer is A. and not in the list

Step-by-step explanation:

let the price of a hamburger be x$

and the price of a small order of French fries be y$

then, a/q

2x + y = 6.50

and (5 × 2)x + 5y = 17.75

or, 10x + 5y = 17.75

or, 5(2x + y) = 17.75

or, 2x + y = 3.55

but 2x + y = 6.50

but this is not possible.

so the question have some problems
