Answer:
£72000
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the Question,
- Given, At a football game, the ratio of men to women is 4:1 & There are 9,000 people in total
Thus, 5 ⇒ 9000 People
So, 4 ⇒ 7200 People(Men)
1 ⇒ 1800 People(Women)
- And, each ticket costs £10
Thus, The amount of money made from tickets sold to men is 7200 total Men x £10 Per Ticket Cost ⇒ £72000.
You can set up an system of equations
x=2y+8
x-y=25
Substitute x in to the second equation
2y+8-y=25
y+8=25
y=17
Substitute the y back in to the first equation.
x=2(17)+8=42
What is the full question. I would be able to help if I saw it all.
