Total tickets sold = 800
Total revenue = $3775
Ticket costs:
$3 per child,
$8 per adult,
$5 per senior citizen.
Of those who bought tickets, let
x = number of children
y = number of adults
z = senior citizens
Therefore
x + y + z = 800 (1)
3x + 8y + 5z = 3775 (2)
Twice as many children's tickets were sold as adults. Therefore
x = 2y (3)
Substitute (3) into (1) and (2).
2y + y + z = 800, or
3y + z = 800, or
z = 800 - 3y (4)
3(2y) + 8y + 5z = 3775, or
14y + 5z = 3775 (5)
Substtute (4) nto (5).
14y + 5(800 - 3y) = 3775
-y = -225
y = 225
From (4), obtain
z = 800 - 3y = 125
From (3), obtain
x = 2y = 450
Answer:
The number of tickets sold was:
450 children,
225 adults,
125 senior citizens.
-2x+y=5
x-3y=-30 so you can multiply the bottom equation by 2 you'll get 2x-6y=-60
-2x+y=5
2x-6y=-60 And subtract the equations. You'll get -5y=-55 y=11. Plug it in to one of the original equations. -2x+(11)=5
-2x=-6 so x=3
y=11 and x=3
Answer:
It is an expression
Step-by-step explanation:
An equation needs to have an equal sign in it and 18-35 doesn't have an equal sign
Hope this helps!! :)
Rise over run is 7 over 2 so 7/2 is the slope
