Answer:

r = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Performing the indicated multiplication on both sides of this equation, we get:

5r - 5 = 2r - 8 - 6

Combining the r terms: 3r - 5 = - 8 - 6.

Combining the constants: 3r = 5 - 14, or 3r = -9.

Dividing both sides by 3, to isolate r, we get: r = -3

Tickets to a concert cost $2 for children, $3 for teenagers and $5 for adults. When 570 people attended the concert, the total t

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer: 220

Step-by-step explanation:

Children (x): $2

Teens (y): $3, $\frac{3}{4}x$

Adults: (z): $5

Quantity: x + y + z = 570 ⇒ x + $\frac{3}{4}x$ + z = 570 ⇒ 1.75x + z = 570

Cost: 2x + 3y + 5z = 1950 ⇒ 2x + 3 $(\frac{3}{4}x)$ + 5z = 1950 ⇒ 2x + 2.25x + 5z = 1950 ⇒ 4.25x + 5z = 1950

Qty: 1.75x + z = 570 → 5(1.75x + z = 570) → 8.75x + 5z = 2850

Cost: 4.25x + 5z = 1950 → -1(4.25x + 5z = 1950 → -4.25x - 5z = -1950

4.50x = 900

x = 200

Teens (y): $\frac{3}{4}x$

y = $\frac{3}{4}(200)$

= $\frac{600}{4}$

= 150

Quantity: x + y + z = 570

200 + 150 + z = 570

350 + z = 570

z = 220
