A) x -y = 4
B) x + y = 30

x = 4 + y So,
B) 4 + y + y =30
2 y = 26
y = 13
x = 17

babymother [125]

Answer:

156 hot dogs
78 sodas

Step-by-step explanation:

A group of 2 hot dogs and 1 soda makes a group of 3 items. There were ...

234/3 = 78

groups of items sold.

Since there is 1 soda in the group, that's 78 sodas. The number of hot dogs is 2 times that, or 156 hot dogs.

78 sodas and 156 hot dogs were sold.

Answer:

Base = 10 cm

Height = 60 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a triangle is $area=\frac{1}{2} *b*h$ , where b is the length of the base of the triangle, and h is the length of the height of the triangle.

We know the area is 300, and since the height of the triangle is 6 times its base, we know that $h=6*b$ . We can plug in these values into our formula for the area of a triangle, which gives us the following equation to solve:

$300=\frac{1}{2} *b*(6*b)$

$3b^2=300$

$b=\sqrt{100} =10$

The base of the triangle is 10 centimeters.

Now that we know the base of the triangle, we can plug its value in to the original formula to solve for the height of the triangle, which gives us the following equation:

$300=\frac{1}{2} *10*h$
