Nathan ordered one cheeseburger and one bag of chips for 3.75 jack ordered two cheeseburgers and three bags of chips for 8.25 know the price of the items

cheeseburger is $3 and chips is $0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Let price of cheeseburger be x while price of a bag of chips be y hence for the case of Nathan, we can write the equation as x+y=3.75. Similarly, for Jack, we can write it as 2x+3y=8.25

x+y=3.75 hence x=3.75-y and substituting this into the second equation we have

2x+3y=8.25

2 (3.75-y) + 3y=8.25

7.5-2y+3y=8.25

y=8.25-7.5=0.75

x=3.75-y=3.75-0.75=3

Therefore, price of cheeseburger is $3 and chips is $0.75
