You are running a concession stand at a basketball game. You are selling hot dogs and sodas. Each hot dog costs $2.25 and each s

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

Nimfa-mama [501]
<span>trapezoid area = ((sum of the bases) ÷ 2) • height
height = </span>trapezoid area / ((sum of the bases) ÷ 2)
height = 43.5 / ((6 + 8.5) / 2)
height = 43.5 / ((14.5) / 2)
height = 43.5 / (7.5)
height = 6 centimeters

What represents the equal number of parts that equal a whole in a fraction.
Alex
This refers to the "denominator" of a fraction. By definition, the denominator tells you how many you need to have of an equal part in order to create a whole. The numerator tells you how much of those equal parts you have.

Michael lives in the northwest corner of Clark County. Clara
timama [110]

Answer:

About 0.41 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

THe distance between Michael and Clara is 44 km.

We know D = RT,

Where

D is distance

R is rate (speed)

T is time

For Michael, we can write:

D = 47t

For Clara, we can write:

D = 61t

If we let michael's distance be x, Clara's distance would be 44 - x

So, we can say:

x = 47t

and

44 - x = 61t

Putting first equation into 2nd, we get:

44 - 47t = 61t

SOlving:

44 - 47t = 61t

44 = 61t + 47t

44 = 108t

t = 44/108 = 0.41 hours

The commute took 0.41 hours
