Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Let's call the hamburgers h and the cheeseburgers c.

h+c=500

c=h-50

Let's plug this value for c into the first equation to solve for h.

h+h-50=500

2h-50=500

Add 50 to both sides.

2h=550

Divide both sides by 2.

h=275

Therefore, 275 hamburgers were sold on Wednesday.

Have a wonderful day! :D

A salesperson makes a monthly salary of $1,200 plus 3% of the sales she makes that week. If her total take home pay for the mont
Westkost [7]

how much did they sale? you can not complete the answer without a sale amount.  because you are asking that they made $1,200 plus 3% of sale, but you do not have the amount they sold so it just $1,200+3% of the sale , but no number for how much they sale, but for advice i would get the total amount they sale and divide by 100 then times it by 3 then try to fill in the void on how they went from 1,200 to 2500. You need to tell us the amount they sold and then the we can answer your question, but without you will not get your answer, so your question is incomplete.

The ordered pairs (4,5) and (4,-5) are reflected points. Are the locations of these points reflected on the y or the x axis?
My name is Ann [436]

The two coordinates' x variables are the same, while the y variables change. This means that it is reflected over the x axis. Reflecting over the y axis would cause a change in the x variable, as it would have to move sideways, so this can't be the case since the x variable stays as 4 even after the reflection.
