Aiden owns a food truck that sells tacos and burritos. he sells each taco for $4.75 and each burrito for $7. yesterday aiden made a total of $588.75 in revenue and sold 25 more tacos than burritos. determine the number of tacos sold and the number of burritos sold.

Number of tacos sold is 65 and number of burritos sold is 40

Given that Aiden sells each taco for $4.75 and each burrito for $7

Let the number of tacos sold be "t" and number of burritos sold be "b"

Given that Aiden sold 25 more tacos than burritos

t = b + 25 ---- eqn 1

Also given that yesterday Aiden made a total of $588.75 in revenue

number of tacos sold x cost of each tacos + number of burritos sold x cost of each burritos = 588.75

4.75t + 7b = 588.75  ----- eqn 2

Substitute eqn 1 in eqn 2

4.75(b + 25) + 7b = 588.75

4.75b + 118.75 + 7b = 588.75

11.75b = 470

b = 40

Substitute b = 40 in eqn 1

t = 40 + 25

t = 65

Thus the number of tacos sold is 65 and number of burritos sold is 40

x = ±sqrt(10)

step-by-step explanation:

5 - 2x² = -15

subtract 5 from each side

5-5 - 2x² = -15-5

-2x^2   = -20

divide by -2 on each side

-2x^2   /-2= -20/-2

x^2 =10

take the square root on each side

sqrt(x^2 )=±sqrt(10)

x = ±sqrt(10)

check:

5 - 2x² = -15

+sqrt(10)

5 - 2(sqrt(10))² = -15

5 -2(10) = -15

5 -20 = -15

-15 = -15

-sqrt(10)

5 - 2(-sqrt(10))² = -15

5 -2(10) = -15

5 -20 = -15

-15 = -15
