Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Replacing f(x) with 21, this is the equation

21=3x+9

First, subtract 9 from each side of the equation to get:

12 = 3x

Next, divide each side by 3 to get:

4 = x

So the answer is B.

The 9th graders are selling tickets to raise money for a class field trip. They are selling student tickets for $5 and adult tic

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Total number of adult tickets sold = 10

Total Number of Students tickets sold = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $x$ be the number of student tickets sold.

Let $y$ be the number of adult tickets sold.

As per the question statement, total tickets sold are 40.

$x +y =40 ...... (1)$

Price of each student ticket = $5

Sales from students' tickets = Price of each students ticket $\times$ Number of students tickets sold

Sales from student's tickets = 5 $\times x$

Price of each adult ticket = $9

Sales from adult's tickets = Price of each adult's ticket $\times$ Number of adult tickets sold

Sales from student's tickets = 9 $\times y$

Total sales is done by students and adult tickets is $240 as per the question statement.

$\Rightarrow 5x + 9y = 240 ......(2)$

Solving equations (1) and (2) using elimination method:

Equation $(2) - 5 \times (1)$ :

$5x + 9y -5x-5y = 240-200\\\Rightarrow 4y = 40\\\Rightarrow y =10$

Total number of adult tickets sold = 10

Putting $y=10$ in equation (1):

$x+10 = 40\\\Rightarrow x = 30$

Total number of students tickets sold = 30

Total number of adult tickets sold = 10

Total Number of Students tickets sold = 30
