We need a system of equations here, one equation based on the NUMBER of tickets sold and another based on the MONEY earned by the sales. We have 2 different types of tickets: full price (f) and discount (d). The total number of tickets sold is 428; therefore, the first equation is f + d = 428. That accounts for the number of tickets sold. Each full price is 10.25 which can be represented as 10.25f, and each discount ticket costs 8 which can be represented as 8d. The money earned by selling these tickets at those prices was 3946. That means that the second equation is 10.25f + 8d = 3946. We will solve the first bolded equation for f to get f = 428 - d. Sub that value in for f in the second bolded equation: 10.25(428-d) + 8d = 3946. Distribute to get 4387 - 10.25d + 8d = 3946. Combine like terms to get -2.25d = -441. Solving for d we get 196. That means that there were 196 discounted tickets sold. Put that in for d in the first bolded equation to find the number of full price tickets. f + 196 = 428, and f = 232. There were 232 full price tickets sold. There you go!

Since 42 is in parenthesis you multiply it by 7

I'm a little confused as to how you wrote out each of the equations, but if there are 2 ounces of fruit cremes, and the box weighs 8 ounces, then there would be 6 ounces of caramels in the box.
Answer:
<u>The French restaurant did not use cream this year, due to a menu update.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:
Amount of cream used by a French restaurant last year = 92.870 ounces
Amount of cream used by the French restaurant this year = 100% less
2. How much cream did the restaurant use this year?
The answer is zero and we calculated it this way:
92,870 - 100% (92,870) = 92,870 - 92,870 * 1 = 92,870 - 92,870 = 0
<u>The French restaurant did not use cream this year, due to a menu update.</u>
