We will be dealing with a system of equations and we'll find the answer by using elimination.
M= members and N= non-members
M+N=353
2.75M+6.50N=1762
We can eliminate M by multiplying the first equation by -2.75.
-2.75m-2.75n=-970.75
2.75m+6.50N=1762
3.75n=791.25
Now divide
791.25/3.75=211
So there was 211 non-member tickets. All we have to do to find the number of member tickets is replace n with its value.
211+m=353
353-211=m=142
There are 142 member tickets. To check our answer, let's put both values in for the second equation.
2.75(142)+6.50(211)
390.50+1,371.50
1762
So, there were 142 members and 211 non-members that came to the play.

Murljashka [212]
Alright, so we have the difference = 4500-2800=1700. To find the percent increase, we do 1700/2800=around 0.61 = around 61% percent

This is 7th grade math..........
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay here's my reasoning:

they are telling us that 3 and 5 put together is 8. While this could be either A or D, this question has already told us that it equals 8. This equation is basically more better suited to 8=3+5 because this is show that 8 can be found by putting 3 and 5 together.

Hope this helps!

13. (07.05 MC) What is the solution to the equation 5x + 2(x - 4) = 5x + x - 10? (1 point) O​
TEA [102]

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 2(x - 4) = 5x + x - 10

First, we need to to multiply out the parathesis in the equation:

5x + 2(x - 4) = 5x + x - 10

5x + 2x - 8 = 5x + x - 10

Next, we can combine "like terms" to simplify the equation further:

5x + 2x - 8 = 5x + x - 10

7x - 8 = 6x - 10

Now we can isolate the variable "x" to one side:

7x - 8 = 6x - 10

x - 8 = -10

x = -2

To check our work, we can replace x with -2 in our original equation:

5x + 2(x - 4) = 5x + x - 10

5(-2) + 2 (-2 - 4) = 5(-2) + -2 - 10

-10 + 2 (-6) = -10 -2 - 10

-22 = -22

I hope this helps!
