the total revenue from ticket sales was $ 3575 . Write two linear equations to represent a system to solve this, where x represents the number of adults attending the movie and y represents the number of children attending the movie. Write the equations, but do not solve them. The first equation must come from the information given about the total attendance and the second must come from the ticket prices and revenue. 1)= ? 2)= ?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of children = y

Number of adults = x

Total people = 550

x + y = 550 ------------------ (I)

Charge for 'y' children =3.50 * y = 3.5y

Charge for 'x' adult = 9 * x = 9x

Total amount = $ 3575

9x  + 3.5y = 3575 -------------(II)

Multiply equation (I) by (-9)

(I)*(-9)  -9x - 9y = -4950  

(II)        <u> 9x  + 3.5y = 3575</u>  { Now add and so 'x' will be eliminated}

                  - 5.5y   =  -1375

y = -1375/-5.5

y = 250

Plug in y = 250 in equation (I)

x + 250 = 550

            x = 550 - 250

            x = 300

Number of children = 250

Number of adults = 300

If x represents the no. of adults

and y represents the children, then

x + y = 550

9x + 3.50y = 3575

Challenge You have 2 different savings accounts. For Account A, the simple interest earned after 3 months is $1.60. For Account
const2013 [10]

Answer:

$1.28

Note for you:

I hope this helps!

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is shown below;

As we know that

The simple interest is

Simple interest = Principal × rate × time

For Account A, the principal would be

2 = Principal × 3.2% × 3

So, the principal is $20.83

For account B, the principal would be

38.50 = Principal × 2.2% × 30

So, the principal is $58.33

Now the interest for both the accounts are as follows

For account 1

= $20.83 × 3.2%

= $0.67

And, for the account 2

= $58.33 × 2.2%

= $1.28

As it can be seen that the account 2 has the highest interest

The same is to be considered
