They are algebraic symbols or known as unknown number. There is no true value for them. The value of algebraic symbols are based on equations
ie. 1+x = 2
First, we isolate the x by canceling the +1 FROM BOTH SIDES(Balance method) by -1 ON BOTH SIDES.
1+x-1 = 2-1
So we are left with the x on the left side, and a single number on the right side. Therefore, our calculation is complete.
x = 1
More complex cases would be
2y-3 = 45
First, we need to isolate the algebraic symbol, which is 2y (yx2) by +3 ON BOTH SIDES
2y-3+3 = 45+3
2y = 48
WE ARE NOT DONE! 2y=48 is still an equation. Therefore, to isolate the y, we need to divide BOTH SIDES by 2
2y/2 = 48/2
y = 24
There is no true or absolute or definite value for algebraic symbols like x,y,z,a,c,t,h,d etc. They are used to represent unknown numbers.
Hope this helped!

Answer:
The student ticket is 200 and the adults is 550
Step-by-step explanation:
So the set up is :
750 = x + y
5300 = 8x + 4.5 y
x will be adults and y will be students
Assuming you don't have calculator then you want to be able to eliminate either x or y from this system. The easiest is X cause its a whole number.
So multiply all the numbers from the first equation by 8 which gives
6000 = 8x + 8 y
5300 = 8x + 4.5 y
Then subtract the numbers (6000-5300 and 8x-8x and 8y-4.5y)
which gives :
700 = 3.5y
Solve for y = 200
and plug 200 back into any equation to solve for X
750 = x + 200
x = 550
Answer:
Q = 3.2
Step-by-step explanation:
So basically you would first re-order the equation. 6.4 + Q = 9.6
Then after that you will move all the terms containing Q to the left and the rest of them on the right. After that you will -6.4 to both sides of the equation. Which will look like this.
6.4 + (-6.4) + Q = 9.6 + (-6.4)
Then you will combine the like terms.
6.4 + (-6.4) = 0.0
0.0 + Q = 9.6 + (-6.4)
<u>Q = 3.2</u>
