Answer:
.
Step-by-step explanation:
Use algebra to set up 2 equations.
Assign c as number of tickets for CATS and w for number of tickets of WICKED
c + w = 2700
c / w = 7 / 11
Then solve for one of them in the first equation
c = 2700 - w
Then put this value for c into the 2nd equation
(2700 - w) / w = 7 / 11
Now cross multiply the numerator by denominator of both numerator and denominator pairs
7w = 11 x (2700 - w)
7w = 29700 - 11w
Now solve for w
7w = 26700 - 11w
Add +11w to both sides
18w = 29700
Now divide by 18 on both sides
w = 1650
Then c is the remainder of that ... 2700 - 1650 = 1050
You can also check because 7 / 11 = 1050 / 1650
55/6.21 = x/1....55 mins to 6.21 miles = x min to 1 mile
cross multiply
6.21x = 55
x = 55/6.21
x = 8.86 minutes
Answer: $37.50
Explanation:
1. Turn 25% into a decimal by removing the “%” and placing a “0.” in front of it. (0.25)
2. Multiply the decimal (0.25) by the original price of the car (30). (0.25x30=7.5)
3. Add 7.5 to 30 to get the answer. (7.5+30=37.5=$37.50)
