Answer:the number of children tickets that were sold is 30.

the number of adult tickets that were sold is 70

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of children tickets that were sold.

Let y represent the number of adult tickets that were sold.

The movie theater sells a total of 100 tickets. This means that

x + y = 100

The theater charges $6 per child's ticket and $10 per adult's ticket. The movie theater made a total of $880. It means that

6x + 10y = 880 - - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 100 - y into equation 2, it becomes

6(100 - y) + 10y = 880

600 - 6y + 10y = 880

- 6y + 10y = 880 - 600

4y = 280

y = 280/4 = 70

x = 100 - y = 100 - 70

x = 30

Allison, Brianna, and Celeste went on a hike. Allison brought 9 homemade
poizon [28]

Answer:

Allison = $0.27

Brianna = $1.89

Step-by-step explanation:

The total cookies that the three girls have are:

Allison's cookies + Brianna's Cookies

= 9+15

=24

There is a total of 24 cookies which has to be divided between the 3.

So

Each girl gets 24/3 = 8 cookies.

Since Celeste had no cookies she will have to pay for the 8 cookies.

Allison had 9, she will give one to Celeste

Brianna had 15 out of which she will use 8 for her self and 7 will be given to Celeste.

Celeste is paying 2.16 for 8 cookies.

Price of one cookie = 2.16/8

=$0.27

So, amount that will be given to Allison = 0.27 * 1 = $0.27

Amount that will be given to Brianna = 0.27 * 7 = $1.89

Solve 9y = 27 How can you find the value of y
Bumek [7]
You need to divide 9 to both sides in order for y to come alone. So then you would have to divide 27 by 9 and y = 3. Hope this helps!
