Oldest = 2x
Middle = x + 5
Youngest = x

2x + x + 5 + x = 57
combine like terms

4x + 5 = 57
subtract 5 from both sides

4x = 52
divide both sides by 4 to isolate x

x = 13

Oldest = 2x = 2(13) = 26
Middle = x + 5 = 13 + 5 = 18
Youngest = x = 13

one number is equal to the square of another. find the numbers if both are positive and their sum is 1122
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

One number is 561

The other number is 23.6854

Step-by-step explanation:

x = y^2                One number = the square of another

x + y^2 = 1122     The sum of the two numbers is 1122

Substitute y^2 in for x on the second equation.

y^2 + y^2 = 1122    Combine like terms on the left

2y^2 = 1122            Divide by 2

y^2 = 1122/2

y^2 = 561                Take the square root of both sides.

y = 23.6854            

x = y^2

x = 561

y^2 = 561

At the city museum, child admission is $5.60 and adult admission is $9.30. On Sunday, 141 tickets were sold for a total sales of
IrinaK [193]

x = child tickets

y = adult tickets

x + y = 141

5.60x + 9.30y = 974.60

y = 141 - x

5.60x + 9.30 ( 141 - x ) = 974.60

5.60x + 1311.3 - 9.30x = 974.60

-3.70x + 1311.3 = 974.60

-3.70x = 974.60 - 1311.3

-3.70x = -336.7

x = 91

91 child tickets were sold that day
