Answer:
See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
a.
x = cost of adult ticket
y = cost of student ticket
cost of adult ticket is twice the cost of a student ticket
x = 2y
number of adult tickets = 64
number of student tickets = 132
cost of all adult tickets = 64x
cost of all student tickets = 132y
cost of all adult and student tickets combined: 64x + 132y
cost of all adult and student tickets combined: 1040
This gives us the equation:
64x + 132y = 1040
b.
Use substitution to solve the system of equations. Since x = 2y, where you see x in the second equation, substitute it with 2y.
64(2y) + 132y = 1040
128y + 132y = 1040
260y = 1040
y = 1040/260
y = 4
x = 2y = 2(4) = 8
adult ticket: $8
student ticket: $4
Answer:
10%
Step-by-step explanation:
we want to find what % of 34 is 37.40
so, we will use the following equation:
for this scenario:
part = 37.40
whole = 34
percent = x
now plug in:
cross multiply
34x = (37.40)(100)
34x = 3740 divide both sides by 34
x = 110%
now we know that with tax, we paid 110% of the video game's price
110 - 100 = 10%
so the percent sales tax is 10%
<u>just to check... </u>
34 • 1.10 = $37.40
or
34 • .10 = 3.40
34 + 3.40 = 37.40
Answer:
the answer is 125
Step-by-step explanation:
9x(6+x)
54x+9x
43x
So in the end the answer after doing the work it will be 43x
