Answer:
x=4 1/6 y=-3 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X= the number of tickets sold at $35 each
Let 350 -X = the number of tickets sold at $25 each
The number of tickets sold for each type will be computed as follows:
X(35)+(350-X)25=10250
35X+8750-25X=10250
10X=10250-8750
X=1500/10
X=150 the number of tickets sold at $35 each
350-150 the number of tickets sold at $25 each
To recheck:
150(35)+200(25)
5250+5000
10250
We can first convert 9.5 into fraction :
9.5= 9 1/2
Then we can use deduction to find out the answer:
9 1/2 - 6 1/3
=19/2 - 19/3
We change it to the same denominator:
=19×3/6 - 19×2/6
= 57/6 - 38/6
= 19/6
Therefore there are 19/6 or 3 1/6 gallons left in the tank.
Hope it helps!
They will be greater for both of these answers because 5 is a larger number than -2 and -2 is a larger number than -5 and it comes before -5 on the number line
