The answer is 210 children tickets were sold . if you multiply the first equation by 7 it would be 7x+7y=2590. then subtract equation 2 from 1 you will have 4x=840 so x=210. Also you can use substitution method.
Given:
Joining fee = $28
Fee of each event = $4
To find:
Total cost for someone to attend 4 events.
Solution:
Let the number of events be x and total fee be y.
Fee for 1 event = $4
Fee for x events = $4x
Joining fee remains constant. So, the total fee is
![y=28+4x](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y%3D28%2B4x)
Substitute x=4 in this equation.
![y=28+4(4)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y%3D28%2B4%284%29)
![y=28+16](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y%3D28%2B16)
![y=44](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y%3D44)
Therefore, total cost of 4 events is $44.
Hi!
We are given the information found in the picture below.
Note: The directions aren't correct, but the triangle works for this problem.
The "direct path" is the hypotenuse of this triangle.
To find this, we use the Pythagorean Theorem, where
and
are 2 legs of the triangle, and
is the hypotenuse, aka the longest side of any triangle:
![a^2+b^2=c^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=a%5E2%2Bb%5E2%3Dc%5E2)
We know
and
and want ![c](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=c)
![4^2+5^2=c^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=4%5E2%2B5%5E2%3Dc%5E2)
![16+25=c^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=16%2B25%3Dc%5E2)
![41=c^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=41%3Dc%5E2)
Therefore,
is approximately ![6.403](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=6.403)
8% of 552 is 44.16. Look at the percent sign as a decimal and move it two places to the left, that'll give you 0.08. To find 8% of 552, look at it as 0.08 multiplied by 552. After you multiply you should get 44.16.
