We have 2 types of tickets, A tickets and B tickets. The total number of tickets sold was 500, so an equation for this NUMBER of tickets is A + B = 500. The MONEY equation is something different. A tickets cost 10, so they are represented by 10A; B tickets cost 60, so they are represented by 60B. The total dollar sales for A and B are 6000. Our money equation for the sales is 10A + 60B = 6000. Solve the first equation for A: A = 500 - B. Sub that value for A into the second equation to solve for B: 10(500-B) + 60B = 6000. Distribute through the parenthesis to get 5000 - 10B + 60B = 6000. Combine like terms to get 50B = 1000. B = 20. There were 20 type B tickets sold. A = 500 - B, so A = 500 - 20 and A = 480. There were 480 type A tickets sold.
96. (3+1+2 =6 then 8x2 =16 for each individual earring, then the total number of needs per earring by the total number of earrings is 6x16 which equals 96)
Answer: x= -42, y=8 >>> (-42,8)
Answer:
Brenda
Step-by-step explanation:
You can divide the number of pages by the number of minutes to find the amount of minutes it takes to read 1 page. For Arnold, 3 pages / 7 minutes = 1 page per approximately 0.43 minutes. For Brenda, 8 pages / 14 minutes = 1 page per approximately 0.57 minutes. Brenda reads slightly faster since 0.57 > 0.43
Add them all up so it would equal 146.06
