Earl isn't correct: the number 1,456 represents the total number of tickets sold, rather than simply six times the number of tickets sold.

Let x= the discount ticket price

1456 = 6x + x
1456 = 7x
x = 28

28 discount tickets were sold. The total number of tickets sold is equal to both the number of discount tickets sold plus six times that number: 1,456 = 6x+ x. Solve for x.

Cindy plans to shop for her school supplies and wants to know how much money she would need to spend. from her friend she knows
vlabodo [156]

Let the cost of 1 notebook be x and the cost of 1 binder be y.

4 notebooks and 3 binders would cost 23.5

Therefore, 4x + 3y = 23.5     (1)

7 notebooks and 6 binders would cost 44.5

Therefore, 7x + 6y = 44.5     (2)

Multiply the first equation by 2.

8x + 6y = 47     (3)

(3) - (2) gives

x = 2.5

Substitute the value of x in (1), we get,

4(2.5) + 3y = 23.5

10 + 3y = 23.5

3y = 23.5 - 10

3y = 13.5

y = 13.5/3

y = 4.5

Hence, cost of 5 notebooks and 3 binders is:

5x + 3y = 5(2.5) + 3(4.5)

           = 12.5 + 13.5

           = 26

Hence, cost of 5 notebooks and 3 binders is $26.
