The problem can be translated into an equation that is something like 4/5 + 3/x = 1/2
we cannot have x equal to zero because the number can be infinite.
So the LCD here is 10x, so multiply both sides by that to get:
8x + 30 = 5x
Subtract 5x and 30 from both sides:
3x = -30
divide:
x = -10
The solution isn't zero so there is a solution.
-2/3 - 5/6
We need common denominators so, since 3 can go into 6, we only need to multiply the first fraction by 2.
= -2 x 2 / 3x2 - 5/6
= -4 / 6 - 5/6
We only subtract the numbers that are in the numerators,
= -4-5 / 6
= -9/6
Both nine and six are divisible by 3, so to put into lowest terms...
=-9÷3 / 6÷3
= -3/2 <--- Final Answer
7/3, 6x7/3 is 14, good luck!

8. The one-time charge of 2.50 will appear added in the equation one time (and not multiplied by anything). The number of tickets (x) will be multiplied by the ticket charge (8) and added to the one-time charge. Only one answer choice does that:
8x + 2.5
Answer:
There are 9 adults
Step-by-step explanation:
3:5 = x:15
3/5 = x/15
3(15) = 5x
5x = 45
x = 9 adults
3:5 = 9:15
