tony's hambugers shack sells hamburgers for $2 plus.40 for each topping

bob's burgers sells hambugers for $3 dollars plus .20cents for each topping

solve the system equations using the equal value method
pls writte the steps

Respuesta :

For 5 toppings, cost of tony and bob are same

Solution:

Let "x" be the number of toppings

Given that,

Tony's hamburgers shack sells hamburgers for $2 plus $0.40 for each topping

Therefore,

Cost = 2 + 0.40x ----- eqn 1

Bob's burgers sells hamburgers for $3 dollars plus 20 cents for each topping

20 cents = $ 0.2

Therefore,

cost = 3 + 0.2x -------- eqn 2

For both the cost to be same, eqn 1 is equal to eqn 2

2 + 0.40x = 3 + 0.2x

0.40x - 0.2x = 3 - 2

0.2x = 1

Divide both sides by 0.2

x = 5

Thus, for 5 toppings, cost of tony and bob are same
