Answer:-3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Get the x by itself by dividing both sides by 8 then reduce -6/8. When you reduce you get -3/4
P + s = 200......p = 200 - s
20p + 15s = 3400
20(200 - s) + 15s = 3400
4000 - 20s + 15s = 3400
-20s + 15s = 3400 - 4000
-5s = - 600
s = -600/-5
s = 120 <=== there were 120 standard tickets sold
p + s = 200
p + 120 = 200
p = 200 - 120
p = 80 <=== there were 80 premium tickets sold
(3) is the base of the new equation
(x + 5) is the answer of the new equation
(2) is the exponent on base (3)
;The new equation after simplifying is...,
; 3^2 = x + 5
; 9 = x + 5
; x = 9 - 5
;Hence...x = 4
X=70... do u need an explanation?
