Answer:

70 adults

42 children

Step-by-step explanation:

A + C = 112

A = 112 - C

2.25A + 1.75C = 231

2.25(112 - C) + 1.75C = 231

252 - 2.25C + 1.75C = 231

21 = 0.5C

C = 42

A = 112 - C

A = 112 - 42

A = 70

Answer:

42 child and 70 adult

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a = number of adult tickets

c = number of child tickets

a+c = 112

2.25a + 1.75c = 231

Solve the first equation for a

a = 112-c

Substitute this into the second equation

2.25(112-c) + 1.75c = 231

Distribute

252 - 2.25c +1.75c = 231

Combine like terms

252 -.5c = 231

Subtract 252 from each side

252-252 -.5c = 231-252

-.5c = -21

Divide each side by -.5

-.5c/-.5 = -21/ -.5

c = 42

Now can find a

a = 112-c

a = 112-42

a = 70

Number 7 please! I need help badly
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

A computer costs $225 and a printer $150.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c be the cost of a computer and p the cost of a printer, then:

3c + p   = 825

4c + 2p = 1200

Multiply the first equation by -2:

-6c - 2p = -1650

Add this to the second equation:

-2c = -450

c = 225.

Now substitute  c = 225 in the first equation:

3*225 + p = 825

p = 825 - 675 =  150.
