The cost of one adult ticket is $8 and cost of one child ticket is $8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Cost of one adult ticket = x

Cost of one child ticket = y

According to given statement;

3x+y=32       Eqn 1

7x+2y=72     Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 2

2(3x+y=32)\\6x+2y=64\ \ \ Eqn\ 3

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2

(7x+2y)-(6x+2y)=72-64\\7x+2y-6x-2y=8\\x=8

Putting x=8 in Eqn 1

3(8)+y=32\\24+y=32\\y=32-24\\y=8

The cost of one adult ticket is $8 and cost of one child ticket is $8.

3(2+4x)=−7x2<br> please give step by step and end with improper fraction as answer
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

\frac{-5}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

3(2 + 4x) = -7 x 2  Distribute the 3

6 + 12x  = -14  Subtract 6 from both sides of the equation

12x = -20  Divide both sides by 12

x = \frac{-20}{12}  Divide the top and the bottom of the fraction by 4

x = \frac{-5}{3}
