A student missed 16 problems on test and got a grade of 66% how many problems were on the test
seraphim [82]

Those 16 problems cost him 34%

One problem is worth 34/16 = 2.0625


So each question is worth about 2 point.

2*x = 66 Divide by 2

x = 66 /2 = 33 questions that he got right.


The total number of questions is 33 + 16 = 49


Does the rounding really matter?

2.0625 x = 66

x = 66/2.0625

x = 32 yes it matters.


Total number of questions = 32 + 16 = 48 <<<< answer.

The movie theater sells child tickets for $1 and adult tickets for $2 during the matinee. regular admission is $4 for a child an
horrorfan [7]
The were 35 child tickets sold and 3 adult tickets sold. 

How did I get this?
First, let's look at what we know.
Matinee
(C)hild ticket = $1    
(A)cult ticket = $2

Regular
(C)hild ticket = $4    
(A)cult ticket = $6


2. We need to make two equations out of this:
1C + 2A = $41
4C + 6A = $158

The variables represent the amount of tickets, which is the unknown. 

3. Process of elimination, multiply the first equation by -3 because we want to cancel out one set of variables. 

-3(1C + 2A = 41)

-3C - 6A = -123
4C + 6A = 158
C = 35 child tickets

Substitute the value c into any one of the equations

1(35) + 2(A) = $41
$35 + 2A = $41
Subtract both sides by $35.

2A = $6
Divide by 2
A = 3 adult tickets
