Answer:
17
Step-by-step explanation:
AC = AB + BC
Since we know what each variable equals, we can write out the equation as shown:
47 = 5x + 3x - 1
Combining like terms:
47 = 8x - 1
Add 1 on both sides:
48 = 8x
Divide 8 on both sides:
X = 6
Now that we know what X equals, we can solve BC.
BC = 3(6) - 1
BC = 18 - 1
BC = 17
Therefore BC = 17.
1) 6/14 divide by 2 = 3/7
2) 9/12 divide by 3 = 3/4
3) 15/25 divide by 5 = 3/5
Let T = total cost
Let 8c = total amount of children tickets
Let 12a = total amount of adult tickets
T = 8c + 12a
The answer is C or the third answer choice because the absolute value of nine is equivalent to the absolute value of nine. The meaning of absolute value is the number of places away from zero on the number line, and both 9 and -9 are equal distance from zero.
