Answer:
The smaller number is 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the smaller number be x
the other number is (17 -x) (we know they add up to 17)
2/3 of the bigger number is written as 2/3 (17 - x)
The smaller number is 3 less than that. (so subtract 3 to get x)
x= 2/3 (17 -x) - 3 <-- We have an equation, solve for x
Check 2/3 x 12 - 3 = 8 - 3 = 5

Answer:
16 rides
Step-by-step explanation:
Option 1 . Admission fee = $10
Each ride = $0.50
Option 2 . Admission fee = $6
Each ride = $0.75
Let no. of rides be x
So, cost of ride according to option 1 = 0.50x
So, total cost after having x rides according to option 1 :
= 10+0.50x ---1
Cost of ride according to option 2 = 0.75x
So, total cost after having x rides according to option 2 :
= 6+0.75x --2
Now to find the beak even point i.e. having the same cost
Equate 1 and 2





Thus for 16 rides , the two options have the same cost .
Hence the break even point is 16 rides
