Let:
x = cost of senior citizen ticket
y = cost of student ticket

4x + 5y = 102
7x + 5y = 126

4x + 5y = 102
4x = 102 - 5y
x = (102 - 5y)/4
x = 102/4 - 5y/4

7x + 5y = 126
7(102/4 - 5y/4) + 5y = 126
(714/4 - 35y/4) + 5y = 126
-35y/4 + 5y = 126 - 714/4

note:
-35y/4 = -8.75y
714/4 = 178.5

-8.75y + 5y = 126 - 178.5
-3.75y = -52.5
y = -52.5/-3.75
y = 14


x = 102/4 - 5y/4
x = 102/4 - 5(14)/4
x = 8

x = cost of senior citizen ticket = $8/ea
y = cost of student ticket = $14/ea

Kaitlyn saves $6 each week. After correctly carrying out the Solve step of the five-step problem-solving plan, which solution sh
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

1. 10 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Apparently, we want to find the number of weeks (w) that Kaitlyn must save $6 in order to have a total of $60.

... $6 × w = $60

Divide by $6 to get ...

... w = $60/$6 = 10

Kaitlyn must save for 10 weeks (if she starts with a balance of 0).

_____

<em>Comment on the problem statement</em>

The problem reads like we came in somewhere in the middle of it. We don't know what other steps you've been asked to perform, or any of the details of the problem you're asked to solve. We don't have Kaitllyn's initial balance, for example, which is essential to determining how long she must save. (If Kaitlyn's initial balance is $33, for example, she must only save for 4.5 weeks.)

-3-8X≥9

Add 3 on both sides.

-8X≥12

Divide by negative 8 and flip the sign.

X≤-1.5

There isn't a number behind five, so I would just keep as is.

I hope this helps!
