Answer:

c) x = 6, y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure is a parallelogram. The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other, so each part of a given diagonal is equal to the other part.

3x = 2y

2x = y+3

Solving the second equation for y, we have ...

y = 2x -3

Substituting into the first equation gives ...

3x = 2(2x -3)

3x = 4x -6 . . . . simplify

6 = x . . . . . . . . .add 6 -3x

y = 2(6) -3 = 9 . . . . use the above expression for y

The values of x and y are (x, y) = (6, 9).

The attendance at a baseball game was 400 people. Student tickets cost $2 and adult tickets cost $3. Total ticket sales were $10

mixer [17]

Let x be the number of adult tickets sold.
That means 400 - x is the number of student tickets.
The revenue from adult tickets will be $3 * x, which we can call 3x.
The revenue from student ticks will be $2 * (400 - x), or 800 - 2x.
The total revenue is $1050, so that means:
3x + (800 - 2x) = 1050.
Removing the parentheses:
3x + 800 - 2x = 1050
Subtracting 800 from both sides:
3x - 2x = 250
Simplifying the left side:
x = 250, which is the number of adult tickets.
400-x = student tickets = 400-250 = 150.
ALWAYS check!
In this case, check the revenue:
3x = 3(250) = 750
2(150) = 300
750 + 300 = 1050. Check!

On Saturday Stella worked for two hours helping her mother in the house. she spent 1/3 of her time doing laundry, 1/4 of a time

raketka [301]

$\bf \stackrel{\textit{total hours time}}{2}-\cfrac{1}{3}-\cfrac{1}{4}\impliedby \textit{we'll use an LCD of \underline{12}}
\\\\\\
2-\cfrac{1}{3}-\cfrac{1}{4}\implies \cfrac{(12\cdot 2)~-~(4\cdot 1)~-~(3\cdot 1)}{12}\implies \cfrac{24-4-3}{12}\implies \cfrac{17}{12}
\\\\\\
\textit{12 goes into 17 \underline{1 time} and it has a \underline{remainder} of 5 }\implies 1\frac{5}{12}$

which is one hour and 25 minutes.
