Let x represent the number of hamburgers sold, and (x - 55) represent the number of cheeseburgers sold.
Set up an equation:
hamburgers + cheeseburgers = total number of burgers
x + (x-55) = 445
solve for x:
2x - 55 = 445
2x = 445 + 55
2x = 500
x = 500÷2
x = 250
This means 250 hamburgers were sold on Tuesday.
Hope this helps!

B-8 would be the answer. This is because we are saying you have 8 less than something. So no matter what something is, we are taking away 8 from it. Since our something is unknown, we use our variable 'b' in its place, and subtract 8, giving us b-8.<span />
I assume you mean x squared in the first equation
Because both are equal to y, they are equal to each other so x + 5 = x^2 +3
If we then move everything over to one side, we get x^2 - x - 2 = 0
Then factorise it to (x-2)(x+1) = 0
And solve both parts separately
x + 1 = 0
x = -1
x-2 = 0
x = 2
Sub both values into the simplest equation in this case y=x+5
to get y = 4 and y = 7
