Answer: 1000 hot dogs and and 1600 sodas were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of hot dogs and y be the number of sodas.

Given : The concession stand at an ice hockey rink had receipts of $6200 from selling a total of 2600 sodas and hot dogs.

Each soda sold for $2 and each hot dog sold for $3 .

Then, we have the following system of two linear equations:-

x+y=2600-----------(1)\\\\3x+2y=6200-----------(2)

Multiplying 2 on both sides of (1), we get

2x+2y=5200------------(3)

Now, Eliminate equation (3) from equation (2), we get

x=1000

Put x=1000 in (1), we get

1000+y=2600\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=2600-1000=1600

Hence, 1000 hot dogs and and 1600 sodas were sold.

if you multply two decimals that are less than 1 , can you predict whether the product will be less than or greater than either
nekit [7.7K]
Yes.  Multiplying anything by a number less than one will decrease the original number.  So multiplying two decimals will result in a number less than either one.
