Answer:
x= 10
Step-by-step explanation:
1/5 x -2/3 = 4/3
Add 2/3 to each side
1/5x -2/3 +2/3 = 4/3 +2/3
1/5x = 6/3
1/5x = 2
Multiply each side by 5
1/5x * 5 = 2*5
x = 10
Answer:
503 $1 tickets sold.
Step-by-step explanation:
Use two equations
Let x = number of $1 tickets sold
Let y = number of $1.50 tickets sold
x + y = 739
1x + (1.5)y = 857
First equation ==> y = 739 - x
Plug this into the second equation
x + (1.5)(739 - x) = 857
x + 1108.5 - 1.5x = 857
- 0.5x = -251.5
x = 503
There were 503 $1 tickets sold.
To find the number of $1.50 tickets, just plug this value of x into either one of the equations.
(503) + y = 739 (739 - 503 = 236)
y = 236
There were 236 $1.50 tickets sold.
Its super easy all u have to do is go on tiger math and the first link will take you to it and u put in the question and it will give you a step by step how to do it and it will give you the answer
60 total fourth graders and 43 are girls. To find the number of boys, subtract.
60 - 43 = 17 boys
If 5 girls were absent, subtract.
43 - 5 = 38 girls present
If 4 boys were absent, subtract.
17 - 4 = 13 boys present
Therefore, there were 13 boys present.
Best of Luck!
