Answer: 33 child tickets that were sold.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of child tickets that were sold.
Let y represent the number of adult tickets that were sold.
At the city museum, child admission is $5.40 and adult admission is $9.10. A total sales of $1079.10 was made on Monday. This means that
5.4x + 9.1y = 1079.1 - - - - - - - - - -1
On Monday, three times as many adult tickets as child tickets were sold. This means that
y = 3x
Substituting y = 3x into equation 1, it becomes
5.4x + 9.1 × 3x = 1079.1
5.4x + 27.3x = 1079.1
32.7x = 1079.1
x = 1079.1/32.7
x = 33
y = 3x = 3 × 33
y = 99
Answer:
"faster"
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's put the rates of Eli in WORDS PER MINUTE (the normal measure for typing).
First, we need to convert 1/10th of an hour to minutes. Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, we need to multiply 1/10 with 60. So we have:
1/10 hour = 1/10 * 60 = 6 minutes
Now, converting 1/12th of an hour to minutes in the similar manner, we have:
1/12 hour = 1/12 * 60 = 5 minutes
Hence, first time his wpm (words per minute) is ----- 240/6 = 40 wpm
Also, second time his wpm (words per minute) is ------ 240/5 = 48 wpm
2nd time he was faster (since 48 wpm is greater than 40 wpm).
He was faster on his second attempt.
The answer should be 1/48
