Answer:

  290.6 backpacks per year

Step-by-step explanation:

The average of 5 numbers is 1/5 of their sum:

  average = (278 +310 +320 +242 +303)/5 = 290.6

The average number of backpacks given out in the last 5 years is 290.6, about 291.

Today, everything at a store is on sale. The store offers a 20% discount.
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

a) $19.2

b) 0.8x

c) $17.5

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We want to find the discount price given the regular price

The discount is 20%

so the discount price will be;

24 - 20% of 24

24 - 4.8 = $19.2

b) We have this as;

x - (20% of x)

x - 0.2x = 0.8x

c) let the original price be x

x - 20% of x = 14

x - 0.2x = 14

0.8x = 14

x = 14/0.8

x = $17.5

You and your friend are selling tickets to a charity event. You sell 11 adult tickets and 8 student tickets for $158. Your frien
svetlana [45]
So what we have to do to solve this problem is to write down those values in 2 equations (one that represents what you sold and the other what your friend sold) compare them and find how much each ticket is worth.
First equation : 11x + 8y = 158
Where x = how much each adult ticket is
and y = how much each student ticket is

The second equation is : 5x + 17y = 152

Using the method of substitution , we can compare each equation side by side:
11x + 8y = 158
5x + 17y = 152
Now we need to set one of the variables of both equations so they are equal:
11(5)x + 8(5) = 158(5)
5(11)x + 17(11)x = 152(11)

55x + 40y = 790
55x + 187y = 1672

Then we subtract the second equation by the first one

55x-55x + 187y - 40y = 1672 - 790
147y = 882
y = 6
The we apply y to one of the equations to discover x :
11x + 8y = 158
11x + 8(6) = 158
11x + 48 = 158
11x = 110
x = 10

So the awnser is :
Each adult ticket (x) is $10
And each student ticket (y) is $8
