A=cost er adult ticket
c=cost per child ticket

2a+14c=96
12a+8c=120

solve

simplify by dividing firs equation by 2 and 2nd by 4

a+7c=48
3a+2c=30

multiply first equaiton by -3 and add to second
-3a-21c=-144
<u>3a+2c=30 +</u>
0a-19c=-114

-19c=-114
divide both sides by -19
x=6

sub back

a+7c=48
6+7c=48
minus 6
7c=42
divide 7
c=6

adult ticket=$6
child ticekt=$6

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development​ (HUD) uses the median to report the average price of a home in the United
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

given that the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development​ (HUD) uses the median to report the average price of a home in the United States.

We know that mean, median and mode are measures of central tendency.

Mean is the average of all the prices while median is the middle entry when arranged in ascending order.

Mean has the disadvantage of showing undue figure if extreme entries are there. i.e. outlier affect mean.

Suppose a price goes extremely high, then mean will fluctuate more than median.

So median using gives a reliable estimate since median gives the middle price and equally spread to other sides.

Question 7 of 10
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

  • Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Equation :

\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: 3(4x+3) = 2x - 5(3 - x) + 2

Using distribute property:

\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: 12x + 9 = 2x - 15 + 5x + 2

Adding the like terms we get :

\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: 12x + 9 = 2x  + 5x  - 15 + 2

\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: 12x + 9 = 7x  - 13

Transposing the variables on the right side and constant terms on the left side :

\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: 12x  - 7x =   - 13 - 9

\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: 5x =   - 22

Dividing both sides by 5 :

\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \:  \dfrac{5x}{5}  =  \dfrac{ - 22}{5}

\qquad \bf \dashrightarrow \:  x =  \dfrac{ - 22}{5}

Mr. Leonard took a job through an employment agency. The job pays $88K per year. He must pay a fee to the employment agency. The
tatuchka [14]
This question shows you how to determine the amount of money Mr. Leonard makes in 4 weeks.  It takes his total salary, divides it by 52 (there are 52 weeks in a year), then multiplies it by 4 (you need 4 weeks worth of pay). 

This amount is shown as $6769.24.

He must pay the agency 22% of this, so change 22% to 0.22 and multiply it by the amount he makes in 4 weeks.

0.22 x 6769.24 = $1489.23

Mr. Leonard must pay the agency $1489.23 after the first 4 weeks.
