Answer:
the answer is approximately 6.047
X will equal -7 in this problem
Let the number of sodas sold be x and the number of hotdogs sold be y. We can assemble a system of equations from the information given and solve.
x+y=170 (We know that soda + dogs is 170)
x-50=y (We know that dogs is equal to 50 less than sodas)
We can use substitution to solve this system of equations.
x+y=170
Sub in the value of y from the second equation
x+(x-50)=170
2x-50=170
2x=220
x=110
We now know the number of sodas sold was 110. Lets now plug this value into the equation to solve for y.
x+y=170
110+y=170
y=60
So, there were 60 hotdogs sold and 110 sodas sold.
Y+4= x blue bikes
G-2= x yellow bikes
4y+4= 8 blue bikes
4y+2= 6 green bikes
4y= 4 yellow bikes
8 blue bikes

4 yellow bikes
=
18 bikes total
