<h2><em>If you put and label the three points in a line, you will see that RS + ST = RT.
</em></h2><h2><em>
</em></h2><h2><em>Then you only need to substitue with the expressions given for RS and ST to find RT.
</em></h2><h2><em>
</em></h2><h2><em>RT = x +1 + 2x - 2 = 3x - 1
</em></h2><h2><em>
</em></h2><h2><em>Also, RT = 5x - 5
</em></h2><h2><em>
</em></h2><h2><em>Then, 3x - 1 = 5x - 5
</em></h2><h2><em>
</em></h2><h2><em>5x - 3x = 5 - 1

Answer:
D. 105 students and 150 guests
Step-by-step explanation:
105 students and $1 for each ticket is $105.(105 x 1 = 105)
150 guests and $5 for each ticket is $750.(150 x 5 =750)
$105 + $750 = $855
Answer:
The amount $15000 is divided as
in 2% = $7000
in 5% = $8000
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that the total amount is $15000 and rates of interests are 2% and 5%.
<em>Let the amount invested in 2% be "x", so the amount invested in 5% is (15000 - x).</em>
The annual interest on x part is given as,
= 
Similarly, The annual interest on (15000 - x) part is given as,
= 
the total annual interest is given as $540
Thus, <em>540 =
</em>
<em>54000 =
</em>
<em>21000 = 3(x)</em>
x =
= 7000
Thus the shares are $7000 and (15000 - 7000) $8000 .
