X = 13/2 or 6 1/2. Hope this helps!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>a)</h3>
8 adult tickets cost 8($9.50) = $76
21 kids tickets cost 21($3) = $63
The total cost of these tickets is $76 +63 = $139.
__
<h3>b)</h3>
aa adult tickets cost 9.50aa
kk kids tickets cost 3.00kk
The total cost of these tickets is 9.50aa +3.00kk.

<em>Additional comment</em>
We ordinarily expect a variable to be a single letter. This problem statement defines each variable using a double letter, so that is what we have used. (Sometimes Brainly doubles up variable content in copied text, so we suspect that may have happened here.)
A. When you solve for y, you will come out with x=0.1039, and x=-1.6039.
Answer:
- $5000 at 10%, $10000 at 12% and 10000 at 16%
Step-by-step explanation:
- <em>One part of $ 25,000 is invested at 10% interest, another part at 12%, and the rest at 16%. The total annual income from the three investments is $ 3,200. Also, the income from the investment at 16% is equal to the income from the other two investments combined. How much was invested at each interest rate?</em>
==================
Let the parts be x, y and z
<u>As per given we get below system of equations:</u>
- x + y + z = 25000
- 0.1x + 0.12y + 0.16z = 3200
- 0.1x + 0.2y = 0.16z
<u>Substitute 0.1x + 0.2y in the second equation:</u>
- 0.16z + 0.16z = 3200
- 0.32z = 3200
- z = 3200/0.32
- z = 10000
<u>Now we have:</u>
- x + y + 10000 = 25000 ⇒ x + y = 15000
and
- 0.1x + 0.12y + 0.16*10000 = 3200 ⇒ 0.1x + 0.12y = 1600
<u>Multiply the second equation and then subtract the first one:</u>
- 10(0.1x + 0.12y) = 10(1600) ⇒ x + 1.2y = 16000
- x + 1.2y - (x + y) = 16000 - 15000
- 0.2y = 1000
- y = 10000
Then
<u>So the parts are:</u>
- $5000 at 10%, $10000 at 12% and 10000 at 16%
