The cost of each adult ticket is $11.43

The cost of each child ticket is $0.14

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Given,

  • The cost of each adult ticket = x
  • The cost of each child ticket = y

On the first day,

Anna sells 5 adult tickets and 6 child tickets for a total of $58.00.

⇒ 5x + 6y = 58  ----------(1)

On the second day,

she sells 8 adult tickets and 11 child tickets for a total of $97.00.

⇒ 8x + 11y = 97  ----------(2)

<u>Solving the equations for x and y values :</u>

Multiply eq (1) by 8,

Mu;tiply eq (2) by 5 and subtract it from eq (1),

  40x + 48y = 484

- (<u>40x + 55y = 485</u>)

  <u>        - 7y = - 1     </u>

⇒ y = 1/7

⇒ y = 0.14

The cost of each child ticket is $0.14

Substitute y = 0.14 in eq (1),

⇒ 5x + 6(0.14) = 58

⇒ 5x + 0.84 = 58

⇒ 5x = 58 - 0.84

⇒ 5x = 57.16

⇒ x = 57.16 / 5

⇒ x = 11.43

The cost of each adult ticket is $11.43

Answer:

For USA TESTPrep A.) 5x + 6y = 58

8x + 11y = 97

x = adult ticket price; y = child ticket price

number of tickets(price of each) = total amount

first day total → 5x + 6y = 58

second day total → 8x + 11y = 97

lindsay bedford works at the baseball cap shop. she is paid $6.50 per hour plus $0.45 for each cap she embroiders. how many caps
crimeas [40]

15 caps are needed so that she can earn $85 in an 8hour day.

<h3>How is the direct equation calculated?</h3>

The direct variation equation has the form y = kx, where k is the constant proportionality. It is a linear equation with two variables. In a coordinate plane, the direct variation graph is a straight line. A constant is the ratio of two quantities that vary directly. Relationship between two variables that can be described mathematically by an equation where one variable equals a constant multiplied by the other.

For each hour she is compensated $6.50 with $0.45.

For an 8 hour day =6.50 *8 + 0.45x

Let x be the caps and earning is $85

6.50*8+0.45*x=85

=> 52+0.45x=85

=> 0.45x=33

=> x=15 (approx.)
