Answer:

x=28 so they need to charge 28 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

525 + 12.50x=875

First, take the 525 and drag it to the other side which will become into negative so the equation will be 12.50x=875-525 now just subtract it and u will get the answer of 12.50x=350 now all you need to do is divide \frac{350}{12.5} and now the answer will be x=28 to double check we can just multiply 12.5 times 28 =  350 now plus 525 is = to 875 hope this helped :>

Using decimal multipliers, it is found that the value of x is of 16.67.

<h3>What is a decimal multiplier?</h3>

Increases of a% or decreases of a% re represented by decimal values, as follows:

  • The equivalent multiplier for an increase of a% is given by: \frac{100 + a}{100}
  • The equivalent multiplier for an decrease of a% is given by: \frac{100 - a}{100}

In this problem:

  • The price at the beginning of January was of a.
  • Increase of 20% in January, hence 1.2a.
  • Decrease of 20% in February, hence 1.2(0.8)a.
  • Increase of 25% in March, hence 1.2(0.8)(1.25)a.
  • Decrease of x% in April, hence 1.2(0.8)(1.25)\left(\frac{100 - x}{100}\right)a

The price of gasoline at the end of April was the same as it had been at the beginning of January, hence:

a =1.2(0.8)(1.25)\left(\frac{100 - x}{100}\right)a

1.2\left(\frac{100 - x}{100}\right) = 1

\left(\frac{100 - x}{100}\right) = \frac{1}{1.2}

\frac{100 - x}{100} = 0.8333

100 - x = 83.33

x = 16.67

The value of x is of 16.67.
