Answer:the price of one senior citizen's ticket is $4

the price of one student ticket is $10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the price of one senior citizen's ticket

Let y represent the price of one student ticket.

On the first day of ticket sales the school sold 6 senior citizen tickets and 10 student tickets for a total of $124. This means that

6x + 10y = 124 - - - - - - - - - - 1

The school took in 98 on the second day by selling 12 senior citizen tickets and 5 student tickets. This means that

12x + 5y = 98 - - - - - - - - - - - 2

Multiplying equation 1 by 2 and equation 2 by 1, it becomes

12x + 20y = 248

12x + 5y = 98

Subtracting, it becomes

15y = 150

y = 150/15 = 10

Substituting y = 10 into equation 1, it becomes

6x + 10 × 10= 124

6x + 100 = 124

6x = 124 - 100 = 24

x = 24/6 = 4

<span>Each Interior Angle / 180 = <span>(N -2) <span>/ (N)

144 / 180 = (n-2) / n

Jaylen will deposit $1,750 in an account that earns 6% simple interest every year. His best friend, Eli, will deposit $1,600 in
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Jaylen- 2275

Eli- 2405.85

Jaylen

1750 x 0.06 x 5 =525

525 + 1750 = 2275

He makes 525 simple interest in those 5 years so you add that to the initial amount, to find his total after 5 years.

Eli

A= 1600(1+0.085)^5

1600(1.085)^5

2405.85

Hope this helps ^-^
