student tickets for the football game cost $12 each and adult ticket cost $20 $1,720 was collected for the 120 ticket sold at la
erik [133]

Answer:

85 student tickets and 35 adult tickets were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Howdy!

We know that student tickets cost $12, adult ticket cost $20 and 120 tickets were sold.

So:

$12×A + $20×B = $1,720. Where A and B are the number of student tickets and adult tickets sold, respectively.

Given that 120 tickets were sold in total, we have that:

A + B = 120

So the system of equations to be solved is the following:

$12×A + $20×B = $1,720                    (1)

A + B = 120                                          (2)

Solving for 'A' in equation (2) we get:

A = 120 - B

Substituting this value into equation (1) we get:

$12×(120 - B) + $20×B = $1,720

Solving for 'B' we have:

$12×(120 - B) + $20×B = $1,720

$1,440 - $12×B + $20×B = $1,720

$1,440 + $8×B = $1,720

$8×B = $1,720 - $1,440

$8×B = $280

B = 35 tickets.

Given that B = 35, then A = 120 - 35 = 85 tickets.

So 85 student tickets and 35 adult tickets were sold.

Simple proportions.

You want a 1:5 ratio.
You have a 5:1 ratio.
So you add another 24 drops of white.
5:25 = 1:5 
or
5/x = 1/5 and cross multiply.

Branson and his sister Beatrice combined their allowance of $7 each, so they could buy a movie for $12. They bought $1 container
Andreyy89

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Branson and his sister Beatrice combined their allowance of $7 each. This means that the total amount they had is 7 + 7 = $14

They bought a movie for $12. The amount that they have left is

14 - 12 = $2

They bought $1 containers of fruit salad with the remaining money and split the containers evenly between them. This means that the number of containers that they bought is

2/1 = 2

If they split the containers evenly between themselves, then each person would get

2/2 = 1 container of fruit salad
