Answer:
180 strips
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that:
1 yard = 36 inches
5 yards = x
Cross Multiply
x = 5 × 36 inches
x = 180 inches
Hence:
1 piece of fabric = 180 inches
How many 1-inch strips can be cut from the fabric?
180 inches = 1 piece of fabric
1 inch = x
x = 180 strips
Answer
Yes
both divide by 7
2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Another example if it was 15/10
Then yes
Both divide by 5
so
3/2
So what we have to do to solve this problem is to write down those values in 2 equations (one that represents what you sold and the other what your friend sold) compare them and find how much each ticket is worth.
First equation : 11x + 8y = 158
Where x = how much each adult ticket is
and y = how much each student ticket is
The second equation is : 5x + 17y = 152
Using the method of substitution , we can compare each equation side by side:
11x + 8y = 158
5x + 17y = 152
Now we need to set one of the variables of both equations so they are equal:
11(5)x + 8(5) = 158(5)
5(11)x + 17(11)x = 152(11)
55x + 40y = 790
55x + 187y = 1672
Then we subtract the second equation by the first one
55x-55x + 187y - 40y = 1672 - 790
147y = 882
y = 6
The we apply y to one of the equations to discover x :
11x + 8y = 158
11x + 8(6) = 158
11x + 48 = 158
11x = 110
x = 10
So the awnser is :
Each adult ticket (x) is $10
And each student ticket (y) is $8
I hope you understood my explanation,
Answer: The slope is 0
