    a. Hot dogs = 65, soda = 130

    b. Movie = $2.75, video = $5.5

    Step-by-step explanation:

    a. Let the number of hot dogs sold be y, therefore the number of soda sold will be 2*y = 2y

    y + 2y = 195

    3y = 195

    y = 195/3

    y = 65

    Hot dogs sold = 65

    Soda sold = 65 * 2 = 130

    b. Let movie be m, let video be v.

    6m + 5v = 44 ... equation 1

    2m + 3v = 22 ... equation 2

    Multiply equation 1 by 2

    Multiply equation 2 by 6

    12m + 10v = 88

    12m + 18v = 132

    Subtract

    12m + 10v = 88

    -12m + 18v = 132

    -8v = - 44

    v = 44/8

    v = $5.5

    Cost per video game is $5.5

    From equation 1,

    6m + 5v = 44

    6m + 5 (5.5) = 44

    6m + 27.5 = 44

    6m = 44 - 27.5

    6m = 16.5

    m = 16.5/6

    m = 2. 75

    Cost per movie is $2.75.
