Whenever you see the word "per" you can ALWAYS substitue in the word "divide". When you see "miles per gallon", change "per" into "divided by" to get miles divided by gallons. That is how you will solve the problem.
SO.....
300 miles ÷ 10 gallons = 30 miles per gallon
Answer:
<em>Henson: 3x + y = 163</em>
<em>Garcia: 2x + 3y = 174</em>
<em>adult ticket price: $45</em>
<em>child ticket price: $28</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Henson Family:
3 adults + 1 child; total $163
3x + y = 163
Garcia Family:
2 adults + 3 children; total $174
2x + 3y = 174
Now we solve the system of equations.
Solve the first equation (Henson Family) for y.
y = 163 - 3x
Substitute 163 - 3x for y in the second equation (Garcia Family).
2x + 3<em>y</em> = 174
2x + 3(<em>163 - 3x</em>) = 174
2x + 489 - 9x = 174
-7x + 489 = 174
-7x = -315
x = 45
Now substitute 45 for x in the first original equation and solve for y.
3x + y = 163
3(45) + y = 163
135 + y = 163
y = 28
adult ticket price: $45
child ticket price: $28
I think pencil and paper would be the best method
X-2=6x+18
-x -x
-2=5x+18
-18 -18
-20=5x
x=-4
