Jeremiah got $65 on birthday and spent some money on 3 video games and was left with $14.

He purchased 3 video games.

Let the cost one one video game be v.

The cost of each video game is same

So the cost of 3 video games is 3v.

Also he is left with $14 after paying for three games.

Hence

3v + 14 = 65

Subtracting 14 from both sides

3v + 14 -14 = 65-14

3v = 51

Dividing by 3 on both sides

v = 51/3

v = 17

Hence the cost of each video game is $17

The roosevelt middle school band is having a fundraiser. They sold a total of 300 hotdogs and hamburgers. Hot dogs were sold for
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

180 hamburgers

120 hotdogs

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the number of hamburgers and hotdogs sold by a company given the amount made by them and the total number of these snacks sold

We proceed as follows;

Let the amount of hotdogs sold be x and the amount of hamburgers sold be y.

We have a total of 300 snacks sold, mathematically;

x + y = 300 ..........(I)

Now let’s look at the prices.

x number of hotdogs sold at $2, this give a total of $2x hotdogs

y number of hamburgers sold at $3, this give a total of $3y.

Adding both to give total, we have ;

2x + 3y = 780.......(ii)

This means we have two equations to solve simultaneously. From equation 1, we can say x = 300 -y

Now let’s insert this in the second equation;

2(300-y) + 3y = 780

600-2y + 3y = 780

y = 780-600 = 180

Recall; x + y = 300

x = 300 -y

x = 300-180 = 120
