A company owns two dealerships, both of which sell cars and trucks. Dealership A sells a total of 225 cars and trucks. Dealership B sells twice as many cars and half as many trucks as the Dealership A, and sells a total of 300 cars and trucks.
) An equation for the total cars and trucks for Dealership A:
Let the number of cars sold at Dealership A be represented by 'x'.
Let the number of trucks sold at Dealership A be represented by 'y'.
Since the total number of cars and trucks sold at Dealership A is 225, we can write the equation:
x + y = 225
Let's assign variables to represent the number of cars and trucks sold at Dealership A.
Let's say:
C = number of cars sold at Dealership A
T = number of trucks sold at Dealership A
Given that Dealership A sells a total of 225 cars and trucks, we can create the equation:
C + T = 225
This equation represents the total number of cars and trucks sold at Dealership A.
To find the equation for the total number of cars and trucks sold at Dealership A, let's assign variables to represent the number of cars (C) and trucks (T) sold.
Given that Dealership A sells a total of 225 cars and trucks, the equation can be written as:
C + T = 225
Here, C represents the number of cars sold and T represents the number of trucks sold. The sum of these two variables equals the total number of cars and trucks sold, which is 225.
