    Using c for the cost of a cheeseburger and f for the cost of medium fries, write a system of equations that models this situation.
    The Greens said that since their bill was $21.11, each cheeseburger must cost $2.49 and each order of medium fries must cost $2.87 each. Are they correct? Justify your answer.
    Using your equations, algebraically determine both the cost of one cheeseburger and the cost of one order of medium fries.
