<span>Stephen and Aaron solved the same equation using two separate methods. Their work is shown in the table below:

Stephen Aaron:
3x - 2 = 5x - 6 3x - 2 = 5x - 6 
3x - 2 + 2 = 5x - 6 + 2 3x - 3x - 2 = 5x - 3x - 6
3x = 5x - 4 -2 = 2x - 6
3x - 5x = 5x - 5x - 4 -2 - 6 = 2x 
-2x = -4 -8 = 2x
x = 2 -4 = x

Identify who made the error and what he did wrong.
Aaron made the error when he subtracted 6.

Aaron made the error when he subtracted 3x.

Stephen made the error when he added 2.

Stephen made the error when he subtracted 5x.

answer:

</span>In the Aaron`s work:
- 2 = - 2 x - 6
and after that:
- 2 - 6 = 2 x
It should be:
- 2 + 6 = 2 x
or: - 2 + 6 = 2 x - 6 + 6
Answer:
A ) Aaron made the error when he subtracted 6.

How do I solve this word problem?

Answer:

  • 280 student tickets
  • 520 adult tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

You may recognize that you are given two relationships between two unknowns. You can write equations for that.

You are asked for numbers of adult tickets and of student tickets. It often works well to let the values you're asked for be represented by variables. We can choose "a" for the number of adult tickets, and "s" for the number of student tickets. Then the problem statement tells us the relationships ...

  a + s = 800 . . . . . . 800 tickets were sold

  12.50a + 7.50s = 8600 . . . . . . . revenue from sales was 8600

(You are supposed to know that the revenue from selling "a" adult tickets is found by multiplying the ticket price by the number of tickets: 12.50a.)

___

You can solve these two equations any number of ways. One way is to do it by <em>elimination</em>. We can multiply the first equation by 12.50 and subtract the second equation:

  12.50(a +s) -(12.50a +7.50s) = 12.50(800) -(8600)

  5s = 1400 . . . . simplify. (The "a" variable has been eliminated.)

  s = 280 . . . . . . divide by 5

Then the number of adult tickets can be found from the first equation:

  a + 280 = 800

  a = 520

280 student tickets and 520 adult tickets were sold.

⇒Δ=6^2+4*72= 36+288=324
V324=18

x1= ( -6+18)/2=6
x2= (-6-18)/2=-24/2=-12

⇒ x1= 6
x2= - 12

Katie walked ⅚ mile on Saturday. It took her 10 mins to walk ⅙ mile. She took 1 minute breaks in between each ⅙ mile. How long d
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

it took her 54 mins to finish her walk.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

total distance walked by Katie, d = ⁵/₆

time taken to walk ¹/₆ mile = 10 mins

break time = 1 min

There are five ¹/₆ mile in the total distance which is ⁵/₆ miles.

Time for the first  ¹/₆ mile  = 10 mins +

                    break time = 1 min

Time for the second  ¹/₆ mile  = 10 mins +

                     break time = 1 min  

Time for the third  ¹/₆ mile  = 10 mins +

                     break time = 1 min  

Time for the fourth  ¹/₆ mile  = 10 mins +

                     break time = 1 min  

Time for the fifth  ¹/₆ mile  = 10 mins

Total time = 5 (10 mins)  + 4 (1 min)

                 = 50 mins + 4mins

                = 54 mins

Therefore, it took her 54 mins to finish her walk.

Answer:

120000 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

1 km = 1000 m

1 m = 100 cm

1.2 km * 1000m/ 1km * 100 cm /1 m = 1.2 * 1000 * 100 cm = 120000 cm
