Let's assume that the number of cars sold by Dealership A is represented by "C" and the number of trucks sold by Dealership A is represented by "T".
According to the given information, Dealership A sells a total of 225 cars and trucks, so we can write the equation: C + T = 225.
Now, let's find the number of cars and trucks sold by Dealership B. We know that Dealership B sells twice as many cars as Dealership A, so the number of cars sold by Dealership B is 2C. Additionally, Dealership B sells half as many trucks as Dealership A, so the number of trucks sold by Dealership B is (1/2)T.
The total number of cars and trucks sold by Dealership B is given as 300, so we can write the equation: 2C + (1/2)T = 300.
Thus, the equation for the total cars and trucks sold by Dealership B is 2C + (1/2)T = 300.
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.
