In a recent year, the total sales at Restaurant A were $75,000 more than at Restaurant B. Total sales at the two stores were $625,000. What were the sales for the year at each store?
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "B sales: x
\n" ); document.write( "A sales: x + 75000
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Equations:
\n" ); document.write( "A + B = 625,000
\n" ); document.write( "x + 75000 + x = 625,000
\n" ); document.write( "2x = 550,000
\n" ); document.write( "x = 275,000 (B sales)
\n" ); document.write( "x + 75,000 = 350,000 (A sales)
\n" ); document.write( "===============================
