  2. $0.45
  3. $1.62
  4. $0.45
  5. $2.50

Correct Answer: C

Explanation:

At a certain dinner, a hamburger and coleslaw cost $3.59, and a hamburger and French fries cost $4.40. If French fries cost twice as much as coleslaw, how much do French fries cost?

h + c = 3.59 ------- I

h + f = 4.40 ------- II

f = 2c ------ III

Subtracting I from II

f - c = 0.81 ---- IV

By putting the value of c from III in IV we hwve: f - f 2 = f 2 = 0.81

f = 1.62
