Substitute into second equation:
x+3=2x-3
put variables on one side:
3x=6
x=2
Substitute to find y:
y=2+3
y=5
So (x, y) = (2, 5)
Answer: 6x + 8y =1,245
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to write an equation for each person:
Jack = The total cost (650) must be equal to the product of the number of shirts he bought (2) and the price per shirt (x); plus the product of the number of pair of jeans he bought (5) and the price per jean (y).
2 x+ 5 y=650
Dylan = The total cost (595) must be equal to the product of the number of shirts he bought (4) and the price per shirt (x); plus the product of the number of pair of jeans he bought (3) and the price per jean (y).
4x+3y = 595
Vertical addition:
2 x+ 5 y=650
+
4x+3y = 595
_________
6x + 8y =1,245
Using x as the number of adult tickets sold
If 3x as many student tickets were sold as adults
--> the number of student tickets is 3x
If the total tickets is 572 and made up of 3x and x
This equation represents the relation ship
Total = 572
number of adult tickets + number of student tickets = 572
x + 3x = 572
When solving for x, we will find the number of adult tickets
x+3x =572
4x=572
x= 572/4
x= 143
143 adult tickets were sold
Answer:
The answer is 55
Step-by-step explanation:
6 + 11 + 8 + 14 + 16 = 55
