Answer:
x = 9
y = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's set up equations:
x + y = 15
x - y = 3
Let's rearrange one of these equations to use the substitution method:
x - y = 3
Add y to each side:
x = y + 3
Substitute in for x:
x + y = 15
y + 3 + y = 15
Combine like terms:
( y + y ) + 3 = 15
2y + 3 = 15
Subtract 3 from each side:
2y = 12
Divide each side by 2:
y = 6
Substitute this in to find the other variable:
x + y = 15
x + 6 = 15
Subtract 6 from each side:
x = 9
x = child tickets
y = adult tickets
x + y = 141
5.60x + 9.30y = 974.60
y = 141 - x
5.60x + 9.30 ( 141 - x ) = 974.60
5.60x + 1311.3 - 9.30x = 974.60
-3.70x + 1311.3 = 974.60
-3.70x = 974.60 - 1311.3
-3.70x = -336.7
x = 91
91 child tickets were sold that day
30% of 200=60 200+60= 260
Ty has £260
£260 x 2= £520
200+260+520= £980
Answer £980
I hope this is right :D
It would be 3 lbs apple because your are dividing
