VARVARA [1.3K]3 years ago

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.

The difference of two numbers is 33. The sum of the first number and four times the second number is -2. What is the larger of t
defon

Answer:

The larger of the two is 44.67

Step-by-step explanation:

let the first number=x

let the second number=y

We can derive a system of equations using the mathematical statements

Their sum is 33:

x+y=33( call this equation 1)

Sum of first number and four times the second is -2:

x+4y=-2(call this equation 2)

Since the integer coefficients of x in both equations are the same we can quickly subtract one from the other to eliminate it

For this explanation, I choose to subtract equation 1 from 2

(x+4y=-2)-(x+y=33)=3y=-35

y=-35/3

Now plug in the value of y into any equation for that of x. Say we plug into equation 1

x+(-35/3)=33

x-35/3=33( multiply through by 3)

3x-35=99

3x=99+35

3x=134

x=134/3

Therefore,x=134/3 or 44.67 and y=-35/3 or -11.67

Why is the grid in Example 1 a good way to<br> represent a percent?
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

percent means  <u>per hundred </u>

Between the 100 squares, 60 of them are shaded

so you do 60/100

it's kind of like correcting tests, you have 100 questions, you got 80 of them right so its going to be 80/100

when you calculate percentage, you do the fraction x 100

so it's 60/100 = 0.6 x100 = 60%

hope that answers your question
