Answer:
Lourdes has $24.
Step-by-step explanation:
The appropriate equation would be L + (L/3) = $32, or 3L + L = $96.
Solving for L: 4L = $96, and L = $24. This is 3x what Ella has, so Ella has $8.
Check: Do $8 and $24 add up to $32? YES
10 ÷(-5)= -2
The answer is A
Answer:
Adult tickets sold: 156
Step-by-step explanation:
Adult ticket: x
Student ticket: y
x + y = 260 ===> -6(x + y = 260) ===> -6x -6y = -1560
6x + 4.5y = 1404 ===> 6x + 4.5y = 1404
________________
add the two equations to eliminate a variable: -1.5y = -156
divide by -1.5: y = 104
substitution to find x:
x + y = 260
x + 104 = 260
x = 156
A is the correct answer
good luck
