Let &lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;x&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt; be the number of hot dogs.  Then 985 - &lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;x&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt; must be the number of steak sandwiches.


The amount of money made from the hot dogs must be 2.95&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;x&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt; and the amount of money made from the steak sandwiches is 9.95(985 - &lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;x&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;) and these two amounts must sum to 7434.75, so:


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 2.95x + 9.95(985-x)=7343.75]


Solve for &lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;x&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt; to get the number of hot dogs.  Subtract that from 985 to get the number of steak sandwiches.
