a) Let C represent the number of cars sold by Dealership A and T represent the number of trucks sold by Dealership A. The equation for the total cars and trucks for Dealership A is:
C + T = 164
b) Let C' represent the number of cars sold by Dealership B and T' represent the number of trucks sold by Dealership B. The equation for the total cars and trucks for Dealership B is:
C' + T' = 229
c) Dealership A sold 164 - T trucks. There is no specific information given about the number of cars sold by Dealership A, so we cannot determine the exact number of cars dealership A sold.
d) Dealership B sold half as many trucks as Dealership A, so T' = T/2.
