Answer:
<u>375 Adult Tickets.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we can simply set up an equation using variable <em>x </em>in place of the unknown student/adult tickets.
x = # of <u>adult</u> tickets sold
x + 65 = # of <u>student</u> tickets sold.
1) x + x + 65 = 815 (set both ticket amounts equal to the total)
2) 2x + 65 = 815 (added common variables together)
3) 2x = 750 (negated the +65, subtracted it from both sides)
4) x = 375 (divided both sides by 2)
5) 815 - 375 = 440 (subtracted the x from the total number of <u>adult</u> tickets, to recieve the amount of <u>childrens</u>' tickets.
Therefore,
Since there were fewer adult tickets sold (-65), 375 is the number of adult tickets, and 440 is the number of student tickets.
Answer:

3) that gives you the final answer of
-2(2x-1)
X+0.5 could be an inequality to represent the possible weight of the second fish, unless you can tell me the weight of the first fish?
Hello!
You can solve this algebraically
p + n = 115
p + 4.25n = 358.75
Subtract the two equations to eliminate p
-3.25n = -243.75
Divide both sides by -3.25
n = 75
Put n into the first equation
p + 75 = 115
Subtract 75 from both sides
p = 40
