9514 1404 393

Answer:

  $24

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost is proportional to weight, so the costs are ...

  dollars/pounds = h/4 = $9/3

  h = $9(4/3) = $12 . . . . cost of 4 lb of ham

and

  t/3 = $8/2

  t = $8(3/2) = $12 . . . . cost of 3 lb of turkey

The total cost of 4 pounds of ham and 3 pounds of turkey is ...

  h + t = $12 + $12 = $24
