-3(x-14)+9x=6x+24
-3x+42+9x=6x+24
-3x+9x-6x=-24-42
0=-18
X = total amount paid
y = number of tickets
z = number of bags
your equation:
x = 10y + 5z + 3

If 19 is half (50%) of something, find that number you would just have to multiply 19 by 2.
This means that 19 is 50% of 38.
160/4 = p/6
Cross-multiply the propportion:
160 x 6 = 4p
Divide each side by 4:
p = 40 x 6 = 240 pages
