The end result will not be the same as the beginning number because of the change in amounts in-between. Here's an example similar but easier
I have two dollars
I get half of it more
I now have three dollars
I give half of that away
Now I have a dollar and a half
It all depends on that the course if of the numbers
System of Equations
For the problem to solve we'll use the following variables:
x = number of the early bird tickets sold
y = number of the regular tickets sold
Haley sold a total of 20 tickets, thus:
x + y = 20 [1]
Early bird tickets cost $10 and regular tickets cost $15, thus the total money collected is:
10x + 15y = 225
Dividing by 5:
2x + 3y = 45 [2]
We have to solve the system of equations [1] and [2].
Multiply [1] by -2:
-2x - 2y = -40 [3]
Add [3] to [2]:
-2x - 2y +2x + 3y = -40 + 45
Simplifying:
y = 5
Substituting in [1]:
x + 5 = 20
Subtracting 5:
x = 20 - 5
x = 15
Solution: Hayley sold 15 early bird tickets and 5 regular-priced tickets
The order pair solution is (15,5)
Answer:
B. <
Step-by-step explanation:
2.7 * 10^3 is < 27 * 10^3
since
27 * 10^3 = 27000
2.7 * 10^3 = 2700
2700 < 27000
now since multiplying by 10 moves the decimal to the right, just looking and mentally comparing them. since they are both multiplied by 10^3 you're left with 2.7 and 27
27 is greater than 2.7
so
your answer is B or <
hope this helps :)
From what we know, p is 20 more than q. So, we can assume p = 20 + q. Q can also be found by subtracting 20 from both sides. So, q = p - 20.
