Answer:

2x + 4y = $50

x = $5, and y = $10

Step-by-step explanation:

let the price of student's ticket be represented by $x, and that of adult by $y. So that:

2x + 4y = $50 ................  1

But, given that adult tickets are $5 more that student tickets.

i.e y = x + $5  .................  2

Substitute equation 2 into 1, to have;

2x + 4(x + $5) = $50

2x + 4x + $20 = $50

6x = $30

x = $5

From equation 2,

y = 5 + 5

  = $10

Therefore, the price of student tickets is $5 and adult tickets is $10.

A. 35 greater than or equal to 14 + x
    35 - 14 = 21
    x = $21
b. If the shirt is 30% off it would cost $9.80
    14 x 0.3 = 4.2
    14 - 4.2 = 9.8
    35 is greater than or equal to 9.80 + x
    35 - 9.8 = 25.2
    x = $25.20
    This changes the inequality by making x greater than it was in part a
c. Yes, you do have enough money to buy the shirt that is on sale and a pair of pants. x is the amount that you have left to spend after you buy the shirt that is on sale. 25.20 is greater than the cost of the pants.
