This is the assumption method ;)

Take all tickets to be adult tickets

$9 x 553 = $4977

Then..... $4977 - $3936 = $1041

The difference between the child and adult ticket is $3, so divide $1041 by $3

$1041 divided by $3 = 347

347 is the number of <em>child </em>tickets sold

347 x $6 = $2082

So 553 - 347 = 206 ( no. of adult tickets )

206 x $9 = $1854

Child tickets sold : 347

Adult tickets sold : 206

Answer:

347 child tickets and 206 adult tickets are sold

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the no. of child tickets sold

Let y be the no. of adult tickets sold

A ticket office sold 553 tickets one day.

Equation becomes : x+y=553 ---A

Cost of 1 child ticket = $6

Cost of x child tickets = 6x

Cost of 1 adult ticket= $9

Cost of y adult tickets = 9y

Now we are given that the receipts totaled $3936.

So, Equation becomes : 6x+9y=3936 ---B

Plot A and B

x+y=553 ---Green

6x+9y=3936 ---Purple

Intersection point = (x,y)=(347,206)

Refer the attached figure

Hence 347 child tickets and 206 adult tickets are sold

It took 60 seconds to fax all documents to Gem

Step-by-step explanation:

The simple addition has to be done to solve the given problem

Given

total faxes = 4

Time for fax 1: t_1 = 14\ sec

Time for fax 2: t_2 = 19\ sec

Time for fax 3: t_3 = 16\ sec

Time for fax 4: t_4 = 11\ sec
