Let "a" and "s" represent the costs of advance and same-day tickets, respectively. Your problem statement gives you two relations.
.. a + s = 35 . . . . . the combined cost of one of each is 35
.. 15a +40s = 900 . . total paid for this combination of tickets was 900
There are many ways to solve these equations. You've probably been introduced to "substitution" and "elimination" (or "addition"). Using substitution for "a", we have
.. a = 35 -s
.. 15(35 -s) +40s = 900 . . substitute for "a"
.. 25s +525 = 900 . . . . . . . simplify
.. 25s = 375 . . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 525
.. s = 15 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 25
Then
.. a = 35 -15 = 20
The price of an advance ticket was 20.
The price of a same-day ticket was 15.
Answer:
made 25%
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: $30
Step-by-step explanation: The formula for simple interest is principal x rate x time.
Putting your numbers into the formula, it will look like this:
I = 500 x .06 x 1
I = 30 x 1
I = 30
The interest on $500 for one year is $30.
Answer:
166.72
Step-by-step explanation:
A= 2(wl+hl+hw)
A= 2(3.2×8.5+4.8×8.5+4.8×3.2)
A= 2(27.2+40.8+15.36)
A= 2(83.36)
A= 2×83.36
A= 166.72
