Hey there! :)

one-half = divide by 2

All you have to do is divide the dimensions by 2

6 ÷ 2 = 3
8 ÷ 2 = 4

The dimensions are 3 in by 4 in ⇒ 1

Hope this helps :)

B. At the circus, three adult tickets and five child tickets cost $51, and five adult tickets

allsm [11]

Answer: x = $7, y = $6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the cost of an adult ticket

Let y be the cost of a children's ticket

Translate these sentences to algebra:

At the circus, three adult tickets and five child tickets cost $51: 3x + 5y = 51

Five adult tickets and two child tickets cost $47: 5x + 2y = 47

Now we have two equations. Let's use substitution to solve.

3x + 5y = 51

3x = 51 - 5y

.: x = 17 - 5y/3

Now substitute this value of x into the second equation to find the numerical value of y:

5(17 - 5y/3) + 2y = 47

85 - 25y/3 + 2y = 47

-19y/3 = -38

-19y = -114

.: y = 6

Now find x:

x = 17 - 5y/3

x = 17 - 10

.: x = 7

So an adult ticket costs $7, and a child ticket costs $6 :)

Llana [10]

<h3><u>Question:</u></h3>

Isabella’s rain gauge showed 3 4/5 centimeters (cm) last Tuesday. This Tuesday, the rain gauge showed 5 7/10 centimeters. How many more centimeters of rain fell during the week?

A 9 1/2cm B 8 1/2cm c 2 4/5cm D 1 9/10 cm

<h3><u>Answer:</u></h3>

Option D

$1\frac{9}{10}$ more centimeters of rain fell during this week than last week

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

From given,

$Last\ tuesday = 3\frac{4}{5}\ cm\\\\Convert\ to\ improper\ fraction\\\\Last\ tuesday = \frac{5 \times 3 + 4}{5} = \frac{19}{5}\ cm$

Also given that,

$This\ tuesday = 5\frac{7}{10}\ cm = \frac{10 \times 5 + 7}{10} = \frac{57}{10}\ cm$

<em><u>How many more centimeters of rain fell during the week?</u></em>

$This\ tuesday - last\ tuesday = \frac{57}{10} - \frac{19}{5}\\\\This\ tuesday - last\ tuesday = \frac{57}{10} - \frac{19 \times 2}{5 \times 2}\\\\This\ tuesday - last\ tuesday = \frac{57-38}{10}\\\\This\ tuesday - last\ tuesday = \frac{19}{10}\\\\Converting\ to\ mixed\ fraction\\\\\rightarrow \frac{19}{10} = 1\frac{9}{10}$

Thus $1\frac{9}{10}$ more centimeters of rain fell during this week than last week
