Answer:
if you divide both sides of -5x > 0 you get z > <em>0. </em>This is incorrect because if you choose a value from the possible solutions such as z=6 and substitute it into the original equation you get <em>-30</em> > 0, which is <em>not true</em>

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
#adult tickets sold = 346
#student tickets sold = 812
Step-by-step explanation:
let 'x' = # adult tickets sold
let 'y' = # students tickets sold
System of Equations:
x + y = 1158
5x + y = 2542
I used the elimination method and multiplied the first equation by -1
-x - y = -1158
+<u> 5x + y = 2542</u>
4x = 1384
x = 346
346 + y = 1158
y = 812
Let one of the number be x
The other number will be x + 2
x + x + 2 = 15044
2x + 2 = 15044
2x = 15044 -2
2x = 15042
x = 7521
x + 2 = 7521 + 2 = 7523
The office number is 7521 and 7523
9. she spends 1 hour total and 1/2 hour on spanish. So she has another 1/2 on another subject ( as she spends equal time on each subject)
So number of subjects = 1 / 1/2 = 1 * 2 = 2
