equations.. You must use an algebraic solution and show your equations to receive
credit. The cost of 3 hamburgers and 2 sodas is $14.90. The cost of one
hamburger is 30 cents more than the cost of two sodas. Find the cost of one
hamburger. (Let x = the cost of one hamburger and y = cost of one soda.)
