Q. Eric owns and operates the Hot Ham food truck. The expression 3.25b+2h 3.25 b+2 h gives the cost, in dollars, of b b burgers and h h hot dogs. What is the cost, in dollars, of 44 burgers and 66 hot dogs?
  1. Identify Variables: Identify the variables and their corresponding values.\newlineThe expression 3.25b+2h3.25b + 2h gives the cost of bb burgers and hh hot dogs. In this case, b=4b = 4 (burgers) and h=6h = 6 (hot dogs).
  2. Substitute Values: Substitute the values of bb and hh into the expression.Cost=3.25b+2h\text{Cost} = 3.25b + 2hCost=3.25(4)+2(6)\text{Cost} = 3.25(4) + 2(6)
  3. Perform Multiplication: Perform the multiplication to find the cost of the burgers and hot dogs separately.\newlineCost = (3.25×4)+(2×6)(3.25 \times 4) + (2 \times 6)\newlineCost = 13+1213 + 12
  4. Add Costs: Add the costs of the burgers and hot dogs together to find the total cost.\newlineCost = 13+1213 + 12\newlineCost = 2525
