<u>Answer:</u>
He will order 72 pairs of high tops
<u>Explanation:</u>
Given the store owner sells two pairs of running shoes for each pair of high tops
For every pair of high tops, he sells 2 pairs of running shoes
1 high top = 2 running shoes
He has planned to order 144 pairs of shoes
Therefore, 144 pair of running shoes = 144/2 = 72 pairs of high tops
Therefore, he will order 72 pairs of high tops
Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
6(x + 1) = 24
6x + 6 = 24
6x = 24 - 6
6x = 18
x = 3
Well, the function is written in y = mx + b, which is slope intercept form. If the graph were to shift down, you would reduce "b" by the number of units that you want to shift.
Therefore for the specific question you posted, and assuming your shift is "k" units - the equation would be ---
y = 4x + (b + k)
Combine like terms:
-3p + 11 = ?
4p + (-7p) = 4p -7p = -3p
9 + 2 = 11
103 adults and 183 children's attended
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Let "a" be the number of adults attended
Let "c" be the number of children attended
Cost of 1 adult ticket = $ 12
Cost of 1 children ticket = $ 4
At the movies, we had 286 people buy tickets
Therefore,
number of adults attended + number of children attended = 286
a + c = 286 ---- eqn 1
The total sold was $1968
Therefore,
number of adults attended x Cost of 1 adult ticket + number of children attended x Cost of 1 children ticket = 1968
12a + 4c = 1968 ------- eqn 2
<em><u>Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2</u></em>
From eqn 1,
a = 286 - c -- eqn 3
<em><u>Substitute eqn 3 in eqn 2</u></em>
12(286 - c) + 4c = 1968
3432 -12c + 4c = 1968
-8c = 1968 - 3432
-8c = -1464
8c = 1464
<h3>c = 183</h3>
<em><u>Substitute c = 183 in eqn 3</u></em>
a = 286 - 183
<h3>a = 103</h3>
Thus 103 adults and 183 children's attended
