A:amount of money invested in the account with 3% simple interest
B: amount of money invested in the account with 4.5% simple interest
a+b=25000 ——>a=25000-b
0.03a+0.045b=900
30a+45b=900000
2a+3b=60000
2(25000-b)+3b=60000
50000-2b+3b=60000
B=10000
A=25000-10000=15000
Answer:
5,6 A
Step-by-step explanation:
Assign x to adult tickets and y to student tickets, then set up the system
5x+y=2465 and
x+y=1077
You can subtract the second equation from the first to get
4x=1388
=> x=347
Then to find y do 1077-347 to find
y=730
Final answer:
347 adult tickets and 730 student tickets were sold.
Hope I helped :)
Answer:
neither of them are
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of gallons consumed be the first car be x, and that of the second car, y. Then:
x + y = 50 . . . . . . . (1)
20x + 15y = 850. . . (2)
(1) x 20 => 20x + 20y = 1000 . . . (3)
(2) - (3) => -5y = -150 => y = -150/-5 = 30
From (1), x + 30 = 50 => x = 50 - 30 = 20
Therefore, first car consumed 20 gallons and the second consumed 30 gallons.
