Answer:
1) either 5 or 6 students in the group
2) 6 rooms are booked
Step-by-step explanation:
1) x students
3x + 8 = apples
5 (x-1) + y (the one get less than 5 apples)
3x + 8 = 5 (x - 1) + y
3x + 8 = 5x - 5 + y
2x + y = 13
X 1 2 3 4 5 6
Y 11 9 7 5 3 1
because y < 5 so x = 5 or x = 6
2) x rooms are booked
4x + 20 total students
8 (x-1) + y (the students in room not full))
4x + 20 = 8 (x-1) + y
4x + 20 = 8x - 8 + y
4x + y = 28
X 1 2 3 4 5 6
Y 24 20 16 12 8 4
y < 8 answer is 6 rooms
Fraction form: x=7/12
Steps:
64^4x-3
2^6(4x-3)=2^-4
6(4x-3)=-4
4x-3=-2/3
4x=7/3
X=7/12
Answer:
16 rides
Step-by-step explanation:
Option 1 . Admission fee = $10
Each ride = $0.50
Option 2 . Admission fee = $6
Each ride = $0.75
Let no. of rides be x
So, cost of ride according to option 1 = 0.50x
So, total cost after having x rides according to option 1 :
= 10+0.50x ---1
Cost of ride according to option 2 = 0.75x
So, total cost after having x rides according to option 2 :
= 6+0.75x --2
Now to find the beak even point i.e. having the same cost
Equate 1 and 2





Thus for 16 rides , the two options have the same cost .
Hence the break even point is 16 rides
0.54=0.54/1=5.4/10=54/100=27/50
