Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x,

Then,

13% of x =65

Or, 13/100 of x =65

Or,x=6500/13

:.x=500

Answer:

500

Step-by-step explanation:

A = the unknown number that we need to find

A x 13/100 = 65

=> A x 13 = 6500

=> A = 6500 / 13

=> A = 500

13% of 500 is 65.

Let's check whether the answer is correct or not.

=> 500 x 13/100

=> 5 x 13

=> 65.

So, the number whose 13% is 65 is 500

Tickets to a local circus cost $5 for students and $8 for adults. A group of 9 people spent a total of $60. How many adults were

S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to set up and solve a system of linear equations here.

Let s and a represent the number of students and adults respectively.

Then s + a = 9, and s = 9 - a.

Total ticket cost for the adults was ($8/adult)(a)

and for the students ($5/student)(s).

Total cost of the tickets was then ($8/adult)(a) + ($5/student)(s) = $60.

Then our system of linear equations is:

8a + 5s = 60

a + s = 9, or s = 9 - a. Substituting 9 - a for s, we get:

8a + 5(9 - a) = 60.

Then 8a + 45 - 5a = 60, or 3a = 15.

Solving for a, we get a = 5.

Solving for s using s = 9 - a, we get s = 9 - 5, or s = 4.

There were 5 adults in the group (and 4 students).

Which pair of words describes this system of equations 3y=9x-6 2y+6x=4

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Consistent and dependent

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$3y = 9x - 6$

$2y + 6x = 4$

Required

The words that describe the equations

Make y the subject in (2)

$2y + 6x = 4$

Collect like terms

$2y = 4 - 6x$

Divide through by 2

$y = 2 - 3x$

Substitute: $y = 2 - 3x$ in (1)

$3y = 9x - 6$

$3(2 - 3x) = 9x - 6$

$6 - 9x = 9x - 6$

Collect like terms

$9x+9x = 6+6$

$18x = 12$

Solve for x

$x = \frac{12}{18}$

Simplify

$x = \frac{2}{3}$

Substitute $x = \frac{2}{3}$ in $y = 2 - 3x$

$y = 2 - 3*\frac{2}{3}$

$y = 2 - 2$

$y =0$

So, we have:

$x = \frac{2}{3}$ and $y =0$

<em>The system is consistent because it has at least 1 solution</em>

<em>The system is dependent because it has more than 1 solution</em>
