A total of 227 tickets were sold for the school play. They were either adult tickets or student tickets. The number of student tickets sold was two times the number of adult tickets sold . How many adult tickets were sold?
------------------------
Equations:
a + s = 227 tickets
s = 2a
--------------------
Substitute for "s" and solve for "a":
a + 2a = 227


3a = 227
a = 75 2/3
----
It doesn't make sense to say that 75 2/3 adult tickets were sold.

Solve the system of equations. −9y+4x−20=0−7y+16x−80=0\begin{aligned} &amp;-9y+4x - 20=0 \\\\ &amp;-7y+16x-80=0 \end{aligned} ​
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

  • (x, y) = (5, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

\begin{aligned} &-9y+4x - 20=0 \\ &-7y+16x-80=0 \end{aligned}

Subtract 4 times the first equation from the second:

  (-7y +16x -80) -4(-9y +4x -20) = (0) -4(0)

  29y = 0 . . . . . simplify

  y = 0 . . . . . . . .divide by 29

  4x -20 = 0 . . . . substitute 0 for y in the first equation

  x -5 = 0 . . . . . .divide by 4

  x = 5 . . . . . . . . add 5

The solution to this system is (x, y) = (5, 0).
