Let's use synth. div. It's so much faster in cases such as this one.
Use k = 3 as your divisor. Then:
________________
3 / 3 -4 -3 14
9 15 36
-------------------------
3 5 12 50 <= the remainder is 50.
<h3>Lost in this deep ocean -,-</h3>
X = 9
y = 6
Step by step:
Divide 15 by 2: 15 ÷ 2 = 7.5
Subtract 0.5 from 7.5 (this will later be added back): 7.5 - 0.5 = 7
Subtract 1 from 7 (she wants to buy at least 2 more children books): 7 - 1 = 6
Subtract 6 from 15 (6 being the number of puzzle books, 15 being the total number of items): 15 - 6 = 9 (number of children books)
A perpendicular bisector cuts a line segment directly in half. a property of perpendicular bisectors is that any point on the line of the bisector will be equidistant (the same distance from) both end points.
Ex, If point X was 5 ft away from one endpoint, it would be 5 feet away from the other as well.
Answer: The number of $12 tickets and $15 sold are 120 and 180 respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is:
12x + 15y = 4140 .....(1)
Where,
x stands for $12 tickets and y stands for $15 tickets
According to the question:
x + y = 300 ....(2)
Now solving equation 1 and 2.
From equation 2:
x = 300 - y
Now putting this expression in equation 1.
12x + 15y = 4140
12(300 - y) + 15y = 4140
3600 - 12y + 15y = 4140
3600 + 3y = 4140
3y = 4140 - 3600
3y = 540
y = 180
And,
x = 300 - y = 300 - 180 = 120
The number of $12 tickets sold = x = 120
The number of $15 tickets sold = y = 180
Thus, the number of $12 tickets and $15 sold are 120 and 180 respectively.
