Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem is similar to many others in which the sum of two quantities and their difference are given. The solution can be found easily when the equations for the relations are written in standard form.
<h3>Setup</h3>
Let s and h represent numbers of sodas and hot dogs sold, respectively. The given relations are ...
- s +h = 235 . . . . . combined total
- s -h = 59 . . . . . . difference in the quantities
<h3>Solution</h3>
Adding the two equations eliminates one variable.
(s +h) +(s -h) = (235) +(59)
2s = 294 . . . . simplify
s = 147 . . . . . .divide by 2
h = 147 -59 = 88 . . . . h is 59 less
147 sodas and 88 hot dogs were sold.

<em>Additional comment</em>
The solution to a "sum and difference" problem is always the same. One of the numbers is half the sum of those given, and the other is half their difference. ((235-59)/2 = 88)
-10 is the slope of the graph
Answer:
x=y
Step-by-step explanation:
you put x and then times the a that equal y
Answer:
m = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Two poin on this line are (-2, 3) and (0, -3). Both points are formed where grid lines meet precisely.
The change in x as we go from (-2, 3) to (0, -3) is +2 and the change in y is -6. Thus, the slope of the line shown is m = rise/run = -6/2, or m = -3.
Take $438÷4=109.5 take 184-109.5=74.5. Then 74.5×4=298. The correct answer is C.
