Adult= $52 Child=$45

We can solve this system of equations through the elimination method.
First we create two equations, with x as the adult tickets and y as the child tickets.
(3x + 1y = 201)
(2x + 3y = 239)

You can now eliminate the x variable from both equations by multiplying them by a number so they become factors of each other.
2(3x+ 1y= 201)
-3(2x+ 3y=239)

Our new equations- We can now remove the x from the equations and solve for y.
(6x+ 2y= 402)
(-6x -9y= -717)

(2y = 402)
+(9y= -717)
= (-7y= -315)
(y=45) So the price of a child ticket is $45.

Pick any of the equations, and replace y with 45 to solve for x.
(3x + 1y = 201)
(3x + 1(45) = 201)
(3x = 156)
x= 52
The price of an adult ticket is $52.

Help me with this question, please

Answer:

Part 1: [ -4 = -8 ]

Part 2: Inconsistent

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Part 1</u>

1. Move all terms that don't contain x to the right side:

3x - 6y+6y = -12+6y

= 3x = -12 + 6y

2. Isolate x:

\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{-12+6y}{3}

x = -4 + 2y

3. Substitute the new expression into the original:

-4 + 2y - 2y = -8

4. Simplify:

-4 + 0 = -8

[ -4 = -8 ]

<u>Part 2</u>

The two solutions are not equal in value, so, we can conclude that the system of equations has no solution, or is inconsistent.

hope this helps!

X = amount of seeds.

y = amount of dried fruits.

we know the snack mix contains both, and we know is 10oz, thus x + y = 10, whatever ounces "x" and "y" are.

how much is it for "x" ounces if each one costs $1.5?  well is just 1.5*x or 1.5x.

how much is it for "y" ounces if each one costs $2.5?  well is just 2.5*x or 2.5x.

the mix contains 10 ounces, each of which costs $2.2 each, how much will it be then for 10 oz?  well, is just 10 * 2.2, or $22.

since the whole 10 oz snack mix costs 22 bucks, then 1.5x + 2.5y = 22.

\bf \begin{cases}&#10;x+y=10\implies \boxed{y}=10-x\\&#10;1.5x+2.5y=22\\&#10;-------------\\&#10;1.5x+2.5\left( \boxed{10-x} \right)=22&#10;\end{cases}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;1.5x+25-2.5x=22\implies -x+25=22\implies 3=x

how many ounces of dried fruit is there anyway?  well, y = 10 - x.
