Let's say the cost of student tickets is x and the cost of adult tickets is y. Then:

(1) 12y + 6x = 138
(2) 5y + 11x = 100

If we rearrange equation (1) we get:
12y = 138 - 6x
Now divide each side by 12:
y = 11.5 - 0.5x

We can now substitute this into equation (2):

5(11.5 - 0.5x) + 11x = 100
57.5 - 2.5x + 11x = 100
8.5x = 42.5
x = 5, therefor the cost of a student ticket is $5.00

Alla [95]
We know that

a) find <span>the ratio of the perimeters 
</span><span>
the ratio of the perimeters is equal to the scale factor
</span>scale factor=26/6-----> 13/3
the answer Part a) is
the ratio of the perimeters is 13/3

b) find <span>the ratio of the areas of the larger figure to the smaller figure
we know that
area larger figure=[scale factor]</span>²*area smaller figure
scale factor²=area larger figure/area smaller figure

the ratio of the areas of the larger figure to the smaller figure is equal to scale factor squared
scale factor²=(13/3)²----> 169/9

the answer Part b) is
169/9

the complete answer is
13/3 and 169/9

Thinking the perimeter of the rectangle is 3x + 2 + x + 3x + 2 + X.
givi [52]
They are both right because the first expression is the perimeter but expanded in terms of length.The second expression is shortened to be a factor expression but they both represent the length.
The benefit of the first one is you can see how it’s expanded and plug the numbers in and the second one is more easy to plug in the numbers with ease.
