4. Five hamburgers and two French fries together contain 2160 calories, while four hamburgers and five French fries contain 2680 calories. What’s the calorie count in one hamburger and one pack of French fries?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Hamburger is 320 calories. Pack of french fries is 280 calories

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent Hamburgers as H and pack of French Fries as P then set up the equations

5H+2P=2160

4H+5P=2680

Multiply the first equation by 5

25H+10P=10,800

Multiply the second by 2

8H+10P=5360

Subtract the first equation by the second

25H+10P=10,800

-

8H+10P=5360

=

17H=5440

H=320

One hamburger is 320 calories.

Plug in 320 for H

5(320)+2P=2160

1600+2P=2160

2F=560

F=280

One pack of french fry is 280 calories
