I think the answer is x= 11 but im not sure <span />
Answer:
RQS=110
TQS=70
Step-by-step explanation:
(12x+2)+(7x+7)=180
The two equations added together give us a straight line which is angle 180
19x + 9 = 180
19x = 171
We solve for x
x = 9
Now that we have x we plus in to each equation
RQS= (12(9)+2)
= 110
TQS=(7(9)+7)
=70
Answer: the number of adult and student tickets sold are (45, 29)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of adult tickets that were sold.
Let y represent the number of student tickets that were sold.
On Wednesday, a total of 74 tickets were sold. This means that
x + y = 74
x = 74 - y- - - - - - - - - - - - - - 1
If adult tickets are sold for $15 and student tickets are sold for $11 and the money collected was $994, it means that
15x + 11y = 994- - - - - - - - - - - - - - 2
Substituting equation 1 into equation 2, it becomes
15(74 - y) + 11y = 994
1110 - 15y + 11y = 994
- 15y + 11y = 994 - 1110
- 4y = - 116
y = - 116/ - 4
y = 29
Substituting y = 29 into equation 1, it becomes
x = 74 - 29 = 45
