28 = (35/100)*x; where x represents "what"
2800 = 35*x;
x = 2800 ÷ 35;
x = 80;

We set up a proportion: 28/?= 35/100

Cross multiply: 35*?= 28*100
⇒ ?= 28*100/35= 80

28 is 35% of 80.

Answer:

general admission tickets 1170

courtside tickets 985

tickets bench seats. 130

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the problem, it is necessary to generate a system of equations with the information provided by the statement.

First be

x = # general admission tickets

y = # courtside tickets

z = # tickets bench seats.

The first equation would be that they sold nine times more general admission tickets than bench seats tickets.

That is: x = 9 * z (1)

And the second equation is that the number of general admission tickets sold was 55 more than the sum of the number of courtside tickets and bench seats tickets.

That is: x = 55 + y + z (2)

Now the third equation would be the money raised.

28 * x + 43 * y + 173 * z = 97605 (3)

Now if I replace I rearrange (1):

z = x / 9 (4) and replacement in 2, I have:

x = 55 + y + x / 9, rearranging:

y = (8/9) * x - 55 (5)

Now replacing (4) and (5) in 3, we have:

28 * x + 43 * ((8/9) * x - 55) + 173 * (x / 9) = 97605

Solving the above:

x = 1170, therefore

y = (8/9) * 1170 55 = 985

z = 1170/9 = 130

We can confirm this with equation (3)

28 * x + 43 * y + 173 * z = 97605

28 * 1170 + 43 * 985 + 173 * 130 = 97605

Consider the equation 40x-25y=15

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

The second equation can be written by equation (1) is given below

8x-5y=3

The two equations represents the same line and therefore they have an infinite number of solutions that are true for both equations.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is $40x-25y=15\hfill (1)$

To find the second equation to create the given system of equations to have infinitely many solutions :

The second equation can be written by equation (1) is given below
