Step-by-step explanation:

146-36=110

110+36=146

Answer 2

Answer:91 Sodas and 55 hot dogs were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of Sodas that were sold at the basketball game.

Let y represent the number of hot dogs that were sold at the basketball game.

At the basketball game a vendor sold a combined total of 146 sodas and hotdogs. This means that

x + y = 146 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -1

The number of Sodas was 36 more than the number of hotdogs sold. This means that

x = y + 36

Substituting x = y + 36 into equation 1, it becomes

y + 36 + y = 146

2y + 36 = 146

2y = 146 - 36 = 110

y = 110/2 = 55

x = y + 36 = 55 + 36

x = 91
