First, x+y=60 and solve for x

x= 60-y

Then set up the equation 11x+6y=460

Since, x=60-y, you plug in for y

11(60-y)+6y=460

660-11y+6y=460

660-5y=460

660-660-5y=460-660

-5y=-200

Divide both sides by 5 (you can drop the negative because they are both negative)

5y/5 = 200/5

y=40

Then take y & plug it back into the original equation of:

x+y = 60 (solve for x)

x+40=60

x+40-40=60-40

x=20

The answer is 20 adult tickets (x) and 40 child tickets (y) were sold.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'x' represent the number of tickets that Teresa sold, and x is integer and x>=0 (you can not sell negative number of tickets)

6 + 2x < 22

x < 8

The range of possible number of tickets that Teresa sold is {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}.

Riley adds 45.3 and 3.21 should his sum be greater than or less than 48 tell how you know
Romashka [77]

His sum should be more than 48.

I know because if you throw away the decimal pieces
and just add up the whole numbers  45  and  3 ,
right there you would have 48 .  So when you include
the decimal pieces, they'll make it even bigger.
