Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

When two straight lines intersect, four angles are formed. The angles that are directly opposite of each other are equal. Since the angles are equal set the values equal to each other and solve for x.

5x - 5 = 2x + 10

5x - 5 - 2x = 2x + 10 - 2x

3x - 5 = 10

3x - 5 + 5 = 10 + 5

3x = 15

3x/3 = 15/3

x = 5

Answer:

The cost of one adult ticket is $13, and the price of one student ticket is $4.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved using a system of equations.

I am going to say that:

x is the cost of an adult ticket

y is the cost of a student ticket.

6 adult tickets and 1 student ticket for a total of $82

This means that

$6x + y = 82$

$y = 82 - 6x$

The school took in $51 on the second day by selling 3 adult tickets and 3 student tickets.

This means that

$3x + 3y = 51$

Simplifying by 3

$x + y = 17$

Since $y = 82 - 6x$

$x + 82 - 6x = 17$

$-5x = -65$

$5x = 65$

$x = \frac{65}{5} = 13$

$y = 82 - 6x = 82 - 6*13 = 82-78 = 4$

The cost of one adult ticket is $13, and the price of one student ticket is $4.
