Answer:
The results don't make sense
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve by means of a 2x2 system of equations, we have to:
"x" is the number of children's tickets
"y" is the number of adult tickets
Thus:
8 * x + 8.75 * y = 259
x + y = 35 => x = 35 - y
replacing we have:
8 * (35 - y) + 8.75 * y = 259
280 - 8 * y + 8.75 * y = 259
- 8 * y + 8.75 * y = 259 - 280
0.75 * y = -21
y = -21 / 0.75
y = -28
Thus:
x = 35 - (-28) = 63
With these results we notice that the problem has inconsistency, since the value of the tickets cannot be given a negative number, I recommend reviewing the problem, since the approach is correct.
The best way to do this is to set up a proportion
2 5
--- = ----
5 x
then cross multiply and divide
5 times 5=25/2=12.5
he would move 12.5 feet in 5 hours
I hope I've helped!
aww this is soo sweet!!
and yes I wouldn't be able to do it without u all loll
okkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk what the queston again lol I forgt
15% off means 85% on so I would use .85x · 6 = total monthly cost to represent this problem. The dot represents times (I did not want to confuse things by using x)
Other ways to express this:
6 x .85x
6(.85x)
.85x (6)
