Let x be the unknown amount of child tickets 
Let 450 - x be the unknown amount of adult tickets (This is because the total amount subtracted from the child tickets can only be the adult tickets since there are no other tickets)

2x+5(450-x)=1800

(2x because each child ticket cost $2 and same for the adult tickets. Each adult ticket cost $5. So, the sum must be 1800.)

Simplify the equation.


2x+5(450-x)=1800   *Distribute*

2x+2250-5x=1800   *Combine like terms. (2-5=-3)*

-3x + 2250 = 1800    *Move constants and variables to opposite sides*
       -2250      -2250
---------------------------
-3x=-450                     *Divide by 3 to isolate the variable*
----  ------
-3     -3

x=150

So, there are 150 child tickets. To find adult tickets, just subtract children tickets from the amount of tickets bought (450-150) to get 300 adult tickets sold.

In 2003, the price of a certain automobile was approximately $32,000 with a depreciation of $1,740 per year. After how many year
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

The correct answer is 5 years i.e. 2008.

Step-by-step explanation:

Price of the automobile in 2003 is $32000.

Depreciation per year is given by $1740.

Therefore let the car value is depreciated for t number of years.

Value depreciated for t years is given by $ (1740t).

The final value of the car after t years is given to be $23300.

Thus the equation is given by 32000 - 1740t = 23300.

⇒ 1740t = 32000 - 23300

⇒ 1740t = 8700

⇒ t = 5

Thus after 5 years the value of the car is $23300.

Thus in 2008 the depreciated price of the car would be $23300.

6/8 equals how many quarters?
allsm [11]

Your answer would be 3/4 (three quarters).

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This can be simplified even further because both the numerator (6) and the denominator (8) can be divided by 2.

So-- 6 divided by 2 would be <u>3</u>, and 8 divided by 2 would be <u>4</u>. 3/4 cannot be simplified even further so this would be your final answer.

I hope this helped you out a bit   :]
