Let
x:adult tickets
y:youth tickets
We have
2x+3y=134
3x+2y=146
Rewritting
6x+9y=402
-6x -4y=-292
adding
5y=110
Clearing y:
y=110/5
y=22
Answer:
the price of a youth ticket is 22$
Answer:
x=8 x=-8
Step-by-step explanation:
-3|x|=-24
Divide each side by -3
-3|x|/-3=-24/-3
|x|=8
There are 2 solutions a positive and a negative
x=8 x=-8
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given
current (older) fridge
electricity charges= $17 monthly
maintenance costs= $220
let the number of months be x
and the total cost be yo
the expression for the cost for the old fridge is
yo=220+17x---------1
New fridge
electricity charges= $6 monthly
costs= $1,050
let the number of months be x
and the total cost be yn
the expression for the cost for the old fridge is
yn= 1050+6x---------2
Hence the system of equation for the situation is
yo=220+17x---------1
yn= 1050+6x---------2
Step two
for 10 years there are 12*10= 120 months
put x= 120 in both expressions and compare the total
yo=220+17(120)---------1
yo=220+2040
yo=$2,260
yn= 1050+6(120)---------2
yn=1050+720
yn=$1770
<u><em>Based on the analysis it will be less expensive to get the new fridge, hence buying the new fridge is worth it.</em></u>
185 since it is going by ones, Hope that helped. :)
