Percent of decrease :
Original - New / Original
so...
80 - 52 / 80 ---->
28/80
.35 multiply by 100 to get percent
35% increase Hope I helped if you have any questions let me know! :)
First, we must let:
x = number of tickets intended for adults
y = number of tickets intended for children.
a. Write in terms of x the number of tickets for children
Solution:
x + y = 28 ⇔ y = 28 - x (equation 1)
To answer in terms of x:
no. of tickets for tickets for children = 28 - x
b. the amount spent on tickets for adults
Solution: $30 is the cost of ticket per adult and there are x number of tickets intended for adults.
Therefore,
amount spent on ticket for adults = 30x
c. the amount spent on the tickets.
Solution:
$ 15 = cost of ticket per child
$ 30 = cost of ticket per adult
total amount spent on tickets = 30x + 15y ⇒ (equation2)
substitute equation 1 to equation 2.
(equation 1) y = 28 - x
(equation 2) total amount spent on tickets = 30x + 15y
total amount spent on tickets = 30x + 15(28-x)
total amount spent on tickets = 30x + 420 - 15x
total amount spent on tickets = 15x + 420
Answer:
the three numbers below are your answers. (in order)
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3><u>Question:</u></h3>
The present ages of Ram and Rehman are in the ratio 8:9. After 5 years, the ratio of their ages will be 9:10. Find their present ages.
<h3><u>Statement:</u></h3>
The present ages of Ram and Rehman are in the ratio 8:9. After 5 years, the ratio of their ages will be 9:10.
<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>
- Let the present age of Ram and Rehman be 8x years and 9x years respectively.
- After 5 years, their ages will be 9x years and 10 years respectively.
- Therefore, by the problem
- So, the present age of Ram = 8x years = (8×5) years = 40 years
- The present age of Rehman = 9x years = (9×5) years = 45 years
<h3><u>Answer:</u></h3>
The present ages of Ram and Rehman are 40 years and 45 years respectively.
