Short Answer: Tony 40 Cleo 30
Givens
T = Tony
C = Cleo
Equations
1/2 T + 1/3 C = 30 (1)
2/5 T + 1/2 C = 31 (2)
Adjustments
Multiply (1) by 3
Multiply (2) by 2
New Equations
3/2 T + C = 90 (1a)
<u>4/5 T + C = 62</u> (2a) Subtract (2a) from (1a)
(3/2 - 4/5)T = 28 the common multiple of 2 and 5 = 10.
(15/10 - 8/10)T = 28
7/10 T = 28 Multiply by 10
7T = 28*10
7T = 280 Divide by 7
T = 280/7 = 40
Put T = 40 into (1)
1/2 T + 1/3 C = 30
1/2 (40) + 1/3 C = 30
20 + 1/3 C = 30 Subtract 20 from both sides.
1/3 C = 30 - 20
1/3 C = 10 Multiply through by 3
C = 10 * 3
C = 30
Answer:
Cleo has 30 books.
Tony has 40 books.
Check
<em>Use Equation 2</em>
2/5 T + 1/2 C = 31
2/5*40 + 1/2 * 30 = ? 31
16 + 15 =?3`
31 = 31 They are equal.
Answer: pretty sure it is linear
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 35 advance, 30 same day
Step-by-step explanation:
$35 * A + $15 * S = $1675
A + S = 65 So. A = 65 - S
Plug in for A:
35(65-S) + 15S = 1675
2275 - 35S + 15S = 1675
-20S = -600
S = 30 same day tix
A = 35 advance tix
The answer is B, 2.5x
2.5 is the average of how many times higher they can jump and x is the average person
