First, let's define your variables!
x=cost of tickets for adults
y=cost of tickets for kids...
You know that they sold 900 tickets, which means the combination of x and y equals 900.
Therefore one equation is...
x+y=900
We also have to take care of the second equation...
We know that 13x represents the total cost of ADULT tickets
We know 7y represents the total cost for the children...
Which means...
13x+7y=11000
There are you equations! (bolded)
Answer:
<u>Jeanette’s ticket was less than the original price by 12 percent</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let's calculate the 20% discount price Jeanette received:
75 - 0.2 * 75 = 75 - 15 = $ 60
The discounted price is $ 60
2. Let's calculate the 10% service fee to the discounted price:
60 + 0.1 * 60 = 60 + 6 = $ 66
The price including the service fee is $ 66
3. Finally, let's calculate the less percentage than the original price:
Let's use the Direct Rule of Three, this way:
Price Percentage
75 100
66 x
**************************
75x = 66 * 100
75x = 6,600
x = 6,600/75
x = 88
Less percentage = 100 - 88 = 12%
<u>Jeanette’s ticket was less than the original price by 12 percent</u>
Answer:
z=16
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: y<x-1
Step-by-step explanation:
So first we have to find the blue line. y=mx+b is the equation. For slope it is 0--1 which is 1 and 1-0 which is 1 so the slope is just one or x now we need to find the y intercept which is just -1. So y<(is less than)x-1! Hope this helps :)
Answer:
2.99x + 12.99y = 43.92
Step-by-step explanation:
socks cost 2.99 and she bought x
2.99x
blouses cost 12.99 and she bought y
12.99y
The total is
2.99x + 12.99y
The total cost was 43.92
2.99x + 12.99y = 43.92
