Let the number of children be c, and the number of adults be a.
c + a = 170 (total number of tickets)
Then the cost of each is: $5.90/child, $9.60/adult:
5.9c + 9.6a = 1269.40 (total sales)
Solving as 2 simultaneous equations, we first transform the first equation:
a = 170 - c
Substitute into the 2nd equation:
5.9c + 9.6(170 - c) = 1269.40
Solving gives c = 98, and a = 170 - 98 = 72. This means that 72 adult tickets were sold that day.

Austin borrowed money from a credit union for 4 years and was charged simple interest at an annual rate of 5% the total interest
Reika [66]

Given:

Rate of simple interest = 5%

Time = 4 years

Total interest = $160

To find:

The amount borrowed by Austin from a credit union.

Solution:

The formula for simple interest is:

I=\dfrac{P\times r\times t}{100}

Where, P is principal, r is the rate of interest and t is the number of years.

Putting I=160,r=5,t=4 in the above formula, we get

160=\dfrac{P\times 5\times 4}{100}

160=\dfrac{20P}{100}

160=\dfrac{P}{5}

Multiply both sides by 5.

800=P

Therefore, Austin borrowed $800 from a credit union for 4 years.

8x + 5y = 22<br> -8x + y = 14
finlep [7]

Answer:

Y = 6 X=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Add the numbers 8x+-8x=0. 5y+y=6y. 22+14=36
  2. So that means 6y=36. So Y would equal 6
  3. Substitute the values it one of the original equations. 8x + 5(6) =22. 8x+30=22
  4. Minus 22 from both sides.
  5. That would give you 8x=-8
  6. So x would equal - 1
