Answer:
132 children and 88 adults
Step-by-step explanation:
let x represent the amount of kids and y represent the amount of adults.
since the problem says there was a total of 220 people at the fair an equation can be made
x+y=220
the problem tells that each childrens ticket was 1.5$ and each adult ticket was $4 and that a total of $550 was made that day, we can use the knowledge to make an equation:
1.5x + 4y = 550
using the equations we can make this systems of equations:
1.5x + 4y =550
x + y =220
solve the systems of equations by subracting y on both sides of th bottom equation:
x=220-y
since x is equivant to 220-y it can be substitued for x in the first equation to make this:
1.5(220-y)+4y =550
--solve for y--
y=88 - there were 88 adults
substute 88 for y in the second equation
x+88=220
--solve for x--
x=138 - there were 132 children

Answer:
Hours slept = 6 hours
Hours awake = 18 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Sasha got 1 hour of sleep for every 3 hours she was awake.
So,
<u>This means:</u>
Slept : Awake = 1 : 3
Total hours in a day = 24 hours
<u>Let </u>
Hours slept = 1x and hours awake = 3x
<u>Hence,</u>
1x + 3x = 24 hours
4x = 24
Divide both sides by 4
x = 24 / 4
x = 6
<u>So,</u>
Hours slept = 1(6) = 6 hours
Hours awake = 3(6) = 18 hours
