Answer:
3x + 1y = $163
2x + 3y =$174
Step-by-step explanation:
Adult tickets to space amusement park cost x dollars children’s tickets cost y dollars.
Henson family bought 3 adults and 1 child's tickets for $163
x + y = 163
3x + 1y = 163
The Garcia family bought 2 adults and 3 child’s ticket for $174.
x + y = $174
2x + 3y = $174
Therefore the equations representing both families cost are
Henson family
3x + 1y = $163
Garcia family
2x + 3y = $174
Let's represent the numbers by : x, x+1, x+2, x+3
x+x+1+x+2+x+3=40 The third number in the sequence is x+2
4x+6=40 8.5+2=10.5
4x+6-6=40-6 Therefore the third number in the sequence is
4x=34 10.5
4x/4=34/4
x=8.5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x + y = 7 ------------(I)
y = 7 - x ------------(II)
x + 2y = 11 --------------(III)
Substitute y = 7 - x in equation (III)
x + 2 * (7 -x) = 11
x + 2*7 - 2*x = 11
x + 14 - 2x = 11
x - 2x + 14 = 11
- x + 14 = 11
Subtract 14 from both side
-x = 11 - 14
-x = -3
Multiply both sides by (-1)
x = 3
Substitute x=3 in equation (II)
y = 7 - 3
y = 4
