Let Lynette has originally candies in hand = x
She gave half to her son means x/2 given to son.
2 candies gave to daughter and left with 4.
x - x/2 - 2 = 4
adding 2 both sides
x - x/2 - 2 + 2 = 4 + 2
x - x/2 = 6
x /2 = 6
x = 12
Means she have 12 candies originally : Answer
Hope it will help :)
You should divide each side by 32. Then when you divide the 160 from 32 you should get 5. Because 32x5 =160
F(-3) would be -8, because you would use the first equation. f(2) would be 4 apparently cause theres no x after the 4, or in the equation of the 4. Hope this helps. Please rate, leave a thanks, and mark a brainliest answer(not necessarily mine). Thanks, it really helps! :D
Answer:
350 adult tickets were sold
Step-by-step explanation:
Let "a" represent the number of adult tickets sold. Then the number of student tickets is (a+69) and the total number of tickets sold is ...
a + (a+69) = 769
2a = 700 . . . . . . . . subtract 69
a = 350 . . . . . . . . . divide by 2
350 adult tickets were sold.
