A Broadway musical came to town. The auditorium filled all 1,000 seats at two-level pricing. Level 1 tickets are $75 each, and l
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

x represents the number of level 1 tickets; y represents the number of level 2 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

The first equation (x + y = 1,000 ) shows that x + y equal to the number of seats in the auditorium. That means that they represent the number of tickets. In the second equation (75x + 100y = 25,000) x and y are being multiplied by the cost of their level ticket. So x represents the number of level 1 tickets; y represents the number of level 2 tickets.

hope this helps!

Solve for x d(-3+x)= kx+9
olga nikolaevna [1]
1. Write the equation:
d(-3 + x) = kx + 9
2. "Open" the parenthesizes:
-3d + dx = kx + 9
3. Take kx to the left side, -3d to the right, everything with different sign (+ replace with - when transferring, - replace with +):
dx - kx = 9 + 3d
4. Factor x in the left side:
x(d - k) = 9 + 3d
5. Finally, divide the whole equation by (d - k):
x = (9 + 3d)/(d - k)
That's the final answer. Good luck!

- 1/3 - (-1/2) what’s the answer? Someone please help!
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

So we are subtracting a negative which is the same as adding.  Our equation becomes -1/3+1/2.  To add fractions we need a common denominator (the denominator of a fraction is the number on the bottom)  To fine the least common denominator we need to find the lowest number that both 3 and 2 go into which is 6.  Then we will multiply each fraction by the number that will give us 6 for a denominator which is 2 for -1/3 and 3 for 1/2.  So -1/3 times 2 is -2/6 and 1/2 times 3 is 3/6.  Our equation is now -2/6+3/6.  Now we will add the numerators ( the numerator is the number on the top of the fraction) and the denominators stay the same when adding or subtraction fractions -2/6+3/6=1/6

I hope this helps and please let me know if there is anything you are confused about or is still unclear, I will be happy to help!
