Step-by-step explanation:
You start with: (assuming x equals the cost to enter and y the cost of going on the rollercoasters.)
x+5y=35
x+11y=59. Multiply the top equation by -1, and subtract the equations, giving you -6y=-24, divide by -6 into both sides of the equation, to get y=4. Now replace y in one of the original equations (I recommend x+5y=35) and solve for x, giving you x=15
The cost for entering is 15 dollars, while each coaster is 4 dollars more. You could simplify this by changing y into x and making it slope-intercept form, to track your cost. y=4x+15, so it has a slope of 4, and a y-intercept of 15. This answer should give you a good grade on a test.
Answer:15 units

Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
Patrica got 80% correct. She missed 4 problems, so that must have been the remaining 20% of the test.
Therefore:
4 = 20% x
Percent means out of 100, so:
4 = (20/100) x
4 = 1/5 x
x = 20
There were 20 problems on the test.
It holds 1,353 gallons of water
