Answer:
98 cars
Explanation:
Given that:
The first dealership sells
x + y = 164 ------ (1)
The second dealership sells
2x +
y = 229 --------(2)
How many cars does the first dealership sell?
Let determine the value of x and y to estimate that.
SO,
x + y = 164 ------ (1)
2x +
y = 229 --------(2)
From equation (1)
x = 164 - y
Replacing the value of x = 164 - y into equation (2); we have:

328 - 2y +
y = 229
328 - 229 = 2y -
y


y = 66
Substitute y = 66 into equation (1) to find x
So;
x + y = 164
x + 66 = 164
x = 164 -66
x = 98
SO, if x = cars and y = truncks
The number of cars the first dealership sold = x = 98 cars
