<span>x = child ticket price
y = adult ticket price
5x+3y=52 the cost accounting for the first group.
3x+2y=38 the cost accounting for the second group.
Child price: 5$
Adult price: 9$</span>
Answer:
Yes and no because not all are in the y intercept it depends
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let x be the original amount of baseball cards,
2. half of x was lost so x divided by 2.
3. you buy 18 cards to replace some that were lost
4. You can find the awnser by subtracting 18 from 30, which is 12.
5. Now lets remember that half of your cards were lost. meaning that 12 is only half of what you started with.
6. 12 times 2 would be 24.
7. The Awnser is 24
8. To check your work, you can say x=24, 24 divided by 2 is 12, and 12 plus 18 is 30.
I prefer to use fractions for some irrational numbers.
For example, 1/3 is equal to an infinite 0.3333333333333333...
9 1/11
or 100/11
they are both the same, it just depends on how the class wants you to write it
