During a football game, the parents of the football players try to raise money for new uniforms. They sell popcorn for $2.50 and pretzels for $2. They collect $336. They sell twice as many popcorns as pretzels. How many of each do they sell? HOW DO YOU SOLVE THIS ALGEBRAICALLY (PREFERABLY USING SUBSTITUTION) Thanks!

Let  x is number of popcorn sell
        y is number of fretzels  sell 
They sell popcorn twice pretzel : x = 2y
 Popcorn        +     Pretzel                =  total
  $2.5 * 2y       +     $2 * y                  =  $336
