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.

You need to calculate 12% of 800.

Change the percent into a decimal by dividing the percent by 100 (move the decimal point of the percent two places to the left.)

12% of 800 =

= 12% * 800

= 0.12 * 800

Find the value of x in the given figure using parallel lines
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

x = 18 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

because lines n and m are parallel, 3x and 126 are same side interior angles. This means that when added up they equal 180, so make an equation as so:

3x + 126 = 180

Solve for it and x will equal 18.
