At a carnival, food tickets cost $2 each and ride tickets cost $3 each. A total of $1,240 was collected at the carnival. The num

ber of food tickets sold was 10 less than twice the number of ride tickets sold.
The system of equations represents x, the number of food tickets sold, and y, the number of ride tickets sold.

2x + 3y = 1240

x = 2y – 10

How many of each type of ticket were sold?

180 food tickets and 293 ride tickets
180 food tickets and 350 ride tickets
293 food tickets and 180 ride tickets
350 food tickets and 180 ride tickets

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equations satisfy the given conditions. There are 2 equations and 2 unknowns, so a certain solution can be found.

This can be solved using substitution,

Substituting eqn 2 to eqn 1:

2(2y – 10) + 3y =1240

Simplifying,

y = 180

x = 350

How many milliliters of 0.30% sugar solution must you add to 75mL of 4% sugar solution to get a 0.50% sugar solution?
hammer [34]
Based on the given data above, the equation below has been generated,
(X mL)(0.003) + 75 mL (0.04) = 0.005 (75 + X); X being the amount in mL of the sugar solution, by further simplification of the generated equation, it can be said that 1312.5 mL of 0.30% sugar solution should be added to 75 mL of 4% solution to come up with a 0.5% sugar solution.
