Johnny is selling tickets to a school play. On the first day of ticket sales he sold 14 senior (S) citizen tickets and 4 child (C) tickets for a total of $200. On the second day of ticket sales he sold 7 senior (S) citizen tickets and 1 child (C) ticket for a total of $92. What is the price of one child ticket?

14S + 4C = 200

14S = 200 - 4C

S = (200 - 4C)/14

7S + 1C = 92

7S = 92 - C

S = (92 - C)/7

(200 - 4C)/14 = (92 - C)/7

7 x (200 - 4C) = 14 x (92 - C)

1400 - 28C = 1288 - 14C

1400 - 1288 = 28C - 14C

112 = 14C

C = 112/14 = 8

the price of one child ticket = $8

I have $3,800 in two accounts for one year. The first account earns a yearly interest of 3.5%. The second account earns a yearly
loris [4]

Answer:

-$1000

Step-by-step explanation:

(3800 - x)*3.5/100 = (3800 + x)*6/100

(3800 - x)7/200 = 3/50(3800 + x)

3800 - x = 12/7(3800 + x)

3800 - x = 45600/7 + 12x/7

(19x + 19000)/7 = 0

19x = -19000

x = -$1000.

The minus implies that the investment must occur in the first account, not the second. It wouldn't make sense to add more money into the second account, because the second account already exceeds the $188 interest with the amount it has in there. Therefore $1000 must be added from the second account and invested into the first.

nordsb [41]

Answer:

89

Step-by-step explanation:

92 = (90 + 98 + 96+ 94 + 85 + x )/6

92*6 = 90 + 98 + 96+ 94 + 85 + x

552 - (90 + 98 + 96+ 94 + 85) = x

x = 89
