Answer:
She needs to descend 20 feet per descent.
Step-by-step explanation:
100/5 = 20
S + a = 300...s = 300 - a
8s + 12a = 3200
8(300 - a) + 12a = 3200
2400 - 8a + 12a = 3200
-8a + 12a = 3200 - 2400
4a = 800
a = 800/4
a = 200 <==== 200 adult tickets
s = 300 - a
s = 300 - 200
s = 100 <=== 100 student tickets
Answer:
2 1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
Because the denominators are different, and there are whole numbers involved, then first make the fractions improper.
4 1/2 -> 9/2
6 2/3 -> 20/3
Next, make the denominators the same by multiplying each fraction by the denominator of the other.
9/2 * 3 = 27/6
20/3 * 2 = 40/6
Then you can subtract the numerators because the denominators are the same:
40/6-27/6= 13/6
Then you can convert to a mixed fraction if need be.
