The answer is 1 + 1 = <em>2</em>
Let the number of minutes be = x.
Cost per minute = 11 cents = 0.11
Phone Bill = Monthly fee + 0.11* x
Substituting from the question
20.82 = 3 + 0.11x
3 + 0.11x = 20.82
0.11x = 20.82 - 3
0.11x = 17.82
x = 17.82/0.11
x = 162

Answer:
- adult: 325
- children's: 225
Step-by-step explanation:
It usually works well to let a variable represent the higher-value item in the mix. Here, we can let 'a' represent the number of adult tickets sold. Then the total revenue is ...
1.50a +1.00(550 -a) = 712.50
0.50a = 162.50 . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 550 and collect terms
a = 325
c = 550 -325 = 225
325 adult and 225 children's tickets were sold.
