Answer:
Advance tickets-$15
Same-day tickets-$20
Step-by-step explanation:
let x be the cost of advance tickets and y cost of same-day tickets:
Given that there were 40 advance and 25 same-day tickets for a total of $1100:
#Make x the subject in i and substitute in ii:
Hence, advance tickets cost $15 each while same-day tickets cost $20 each.
Answer:
x = 9
y = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Side-Side-Side or SSS means that if all three sides of one triangle are equal to all three corresponding sides of another triangle, then the two triangles are considered to be congruent (equal).
Therefore, GH = PM ⇒ 7x + 8 = 6y - 7
and, GP = HM ⇒ 8x - 10 = 5y - 3
Rewrite the first expression to make x the subject, then substitute this into the second equation, and solve for y:
GH = PM
⇒ 7x + 8 = 6y - 7
⇒ 7x = 6y - 15
⇒ x = (6/7)y - 15/7
Substituting x = (6/7)y - 15/7 into GP = HM:
GP = HM
⇒ 8x - 10 = 5y - 3
⇒ 8[(6/7)y - 15/7] - 10 = 5y - 3
⇒ (48/7)y - 120/7 - 10 = 5y - 3
⇒ (13/7)y = 169/7
⇒ y = 13
Now we have found a value for y, substitute this into one of the expressions and solve for x:
8x - 10 = 5y - 3
⇒ 8x - 10 = (5 x 13) - 3
⇒ 8x - 10 = 62
⇒ 8x = 72
⇒ x = 9
