Two families went to Rollercoaster World.
Alona [7]

Answer:

Children ticket cost $30 and adult ticket costs $40.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

x = price of a child ticket

y = price of an adult ticket

According to given statement;

3x+2y=170     Eqn 1

4x+6y=360    Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 3

3(3x+2y=170)

9x+6y=510      Eqn 3

Subtracting Eqn 2 from Eqn 3

(9x+6y)-(4x+6y)=510-360

9x+6y-4x-6y=150

5x=150

Dividing both sides by 5

\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{150}{5}\\x=30

Putting x=30 in Eqn 1

3(30)+2y=170

90+2y=170

2y = 170-90

2y = 80

Dividing both sides by 2

\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{80}{2}\\y=40

Hence,

Children ticket cost $30 and adult ticket costs $40.

Solve for y. Answer to the nearest tenth
AysviL [449]

Answer:

y = 11.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 2 secants from an external point to the circle.

Then the product of the external part and the whole of one secant is equal to the product of the external part and the whole of the other secant, that is

6(6 + y) = 5(5 + 16)

36 + 6y = 5 × 21 = 105 ( subtract 36 from both sides )

6y = 69 ( divide both parts by 6 )

y = 11.5
