For this case we have the following variables:

h: Cost of each hamburger bought by Jana and her friend

f: Cost of each order of potato chips bought by Jana and her friend

b: Cost of each milkshake

If you bought 4 hamburgers, 3 orders of potatoes and 2 milkshakes, you have a cost of:

[tex]Cost = 4h + 3f + 2b[/tex]

It is known that each shake costs $ 3, so[tex]b =3[/tex]$

Substituting we have:

[tex]Cost = 4h + 3f + 2 * 3[/tex]

[tex]Cost = 4h + 3f + 6[/tex]

Thus, the total cost is given by:

[tex]Cost = 4h + 3f + 6[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]Cost = 4h + 3f + 6[/tex]

Option C
