oda costs $1.50. At the end of the night, you made a total of $225.75. You sold a total of 126 hot dogs and sodas combined. You must report the number of hot dogs sold and the number of sodas sold. What equations did you use to solve this? How many hot dogs were sold and how many sodas were sold?
A.
x + y = 126 and 2.25x + 1.50y = 225.75 ; 49 hot dogs and 77 sodas.

B.
x + y = 126 and 2.25x + 1.50y = 225.75 ; 77 hot dogs and 49 sodas.

C.
2.25x + 1.50y = 126 and x + y = 225.75 : -283.5 hot dogs and 509.25 sodas.

The equations and the number of hotdogs and sodas sold are:  x+ y = 126 and 2.25x + 1.50y = 225.75 ; 49 hot dogs and 77 sodas.

Two equations can be derived from this question:

2.25x + 1.50y = 225.75 equation 1

x + y = 126 equation 2

Where:

x = number of hotdogs sold

y = number of soda sold

In order to determine the value of y, multiply equation 2 by 2.25

2.25x + 2.25y = 283.50 equation 3

Subtract equation 1 from 3

57.75 = 0.75y

y = 77

Substitute for y in equation 2

x + 77 = 126

x = 49
