Answer:

There are 18 Sedans in the dealership shop.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of Sedans in the dealership shop.

Let y represent the number of SUV's in the dealership shop.

If there are a combined 24 sedans and SUVs, it means that

x + y = 24 - - - - - - - - - - - -1

At a car dealership, there are three times as many sedans as SUVs. This means that

x = 3y

Substituting x = 3y into equation 1, it becomes

3y + y = 24

4y = 24

y = 24/4 = 6

x = 3y = 6 × 3

x = 18
