X=6y
sum of their reciprocals
(1/x)+(1/y)=7
x=6y
1/6y+1/y=7
1/6y+6/6y=7
7/6y=7
times both sides by 6y
7=42y
divide both sides by 42
1/6=y
x=6y
x=6(1/6)
x=6/6
x=1
the numbers are 1 and 1/6
Answer:
325
Step-by-step explanation:
Total Tickets = 585
Let the adult tickets be = x
If 65 fewer student tickets were sold than adult tickets then Student tickets = x-65
Student Tickets + Adult Tickets = 585
x + (x-65) = 585
x + x - 65 = 585
2x - 65 = 585
2x = 585 + 65
2x = 650
2x/2 = 650/2
x = 325
