Given:
tickets for adults - 25
tickets for kids - 15
initial cost - 450
increase in tickets for kids to - 18
cost after increase - 480
let x be number of adults and y be number of kids
25x + 15y = 450
25x + 18y = 480
subtraction:
25x + 15y = 450
<u>-25x - 18y = -480</u>
0 - 3y = - 30
y = -30/-3
y = 10
There are 10 kids.
25x + 15y = 450
25x + 15(10) = 450
25x + 150 = 450
25x = 450 - 150
25x = 300
x = 300/25
x = 12
There are 12 adults.
All in all there are 12 adults and 10 kids.
to check:
25x + 15y = 450
25(12) + 15(10) = 450
300 + 150 = 450
450 = 450
25x + 18y = 480
25(12) + 18(10) = 480
300 + 180 = 480
480 = 480
Answer:
N(c) = (C - 15)/20.
Step-by-step explanation:
C(n) = 20n + 15
20n = C- 15
N(c) = (C - 15)/20.
The exact value of the expression is 163.98 :)
Solve x by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.
Answer:
x= - 31/2
