Alright this is gonna be a long one

Lets called child tickets x and adult tickets y 

so x + y should be equal to 159 since they said that the total sum of the tickets is 159 
so thats your first equation : x + y = 159

next form an equation using the prices, 
5.40x + 8.70y = 1079.70

now that you have your two equations, just substitute the first into the second (you could either substitute for x or y by saying x = 159-y or that y=159-x)

Hope this helps.

What is the rational number equivalent to 3.24​
aev [14]

Answer:

The rational number equivalent to 3.24 repeating is 321/99

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert the decimal number to a rational number we can state this number and its multiples of 10, trying to find two number with identical decimal parts:

n=3.24242424...

10n=32.4242424....

100n=324.2424242...

Now, 100n and n have the same decimal part, then by subtracting these numbers we obtain:

100n-n=324.24242424...-3.24242424... = 321

99n  = 321

n = 321/99
