A system of equations is good for a problem like this.
Let x be the number of student tickets sold
Let y be the number of adult tickets sold
x + y = 200
2x + 3y = 490
x = 200 - y
2(200 - y) + 3y = 490
400 - 2y + 3y = 490
400 + y = 490
y = 90
The number of adult tickets sold was 90.
x + 90 = 200 --> x = 110
2x + 3(90) = 490 --> 2x + 270 = 490 --> 2x = 220 --> x = 110
The number student tickets sold was 110.

Aliun [14]

Answer:

12x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

12 is multiplyed by both the x and the (1/6) since it is outside the equation.

so 12 times x = 12x since we dont know what x is

and 12 times (1/6) = (12/6) = 2

Una avenida está siendo asfaltada por etapas. En la primera etapa se asfaltó la mitad; en la segunda, la quinta parte, y en la t
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

Sabemos que:

L es el largo de la avenida.

En la primer etapa se asfalto la mitad, L/2, entonces lo que queda por asfaltar es:

L - L/2 = L/2.

En la segunda etapa se asfalto la quinta parte, L/5, entonces lo que queda por asfaltar es:

L/2 - L/5 = 5*L/10 - 2*L/10 = (3/10)*L

En la tercer etapa se asfalto la cuarta parte del total, L/4, entonces lo que queda por asfaltar es:

(3/10)*L - L/4 = 12*L/40 - 10L/40 = (2/40)*L

Y sabemos que este ultimo pedazo que queda por asfaltar es de 200m:

(2/40)*L = 200m

L = 200m*(40/2) = 4,000m
