Let the equation be 1/2x=48-10
where x is the dad's weight
1/2x=48-10
1/2x=38
x=76 ( i divided both sides by 1/2)

$x-\ dad's\ weight\\\\
48-10=\frac{1}{2}x\\\\
38=\frac{1}{2}x\ \ \ \ | multiply\ by\ 2\\\\
76=x\\\\
Dad's\ weight\ is\ 76\ kilorams.$

$21.50x+14.75y=204$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of adult tickets and y be the number of children's tickets.

We are given that there are total 12 people. Therefore, we can set:

$x+y=12$
