Answer:
92 attendees had activity cards
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of students with activity cards. Then 130-x is the number without, and the total revenue is ...
7x +10(130 -x) = 1024
7x +1300 -10x = 1024 . . . . eliminate parentheses
-3x = -276 . . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms; subtract 1300
x = 92 . . . . . . divide by 3
92 students with activity cards attended the dance.

<em>Comment on the solution</em>
Often, you will see such a problem solved using two equations. For example, they might be ...
Let 'a' represent the number with an activity card; 'w' the number without. Then ...
- a+w = 130 . . . . the total number of students
- 7a +10w = 1024 . . . . the revenue from ticket sales
The problem statement asks for the value of 'a', so you want to eliminate w from these equations. You can do that using substitution. Using the first equation to write an expression for w, you have ...
w = 130-a
and making the substitution into the second equation gives ...
7a +10(130 -a) = 1024
This should look a lot like the equation we used above. There, we skipped the extra variable and went straight to the single equation we needed to solve.

The compatible numbers are 5220 and 60 because 522/6 = 87
I GUESS I AM RIGHT AND I REALLY HOPE THIS HELPS!!!!
Answer:
Ella should not have included 5 in absolute value portion of the equation
Step-by-step explanation:
Because -1 is a negative number in order to find the true distance between A and B you have to make it positive.
But, because Ella included 5 in the absolute value portion of the equation it messed up the answer.
C is the correct answer hope this helps you and have a great day
