Answer:
8 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
Given data
Tom earned $72 walking dogs for 6 hours
amount earned = $72
time taken = 6 hours
Required
The time taken to earn $96
Step two:
let us find the unit rate of his earning
unit rate = 72/6
= 12 per hour
In 1 hour Tom earns $12
in x hours he will earn $96
cross multiply we have
96*1= 12x
divide both sides by 12
x= 96/12
x=8 hours
Answer:
this is correct beacuse of the four in the back of the number six
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Adult= $11
Children = $7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent adult ticket and y represent children ticket
2x + 3y= 44.50........equation 1
3x + 6y= 78........equation 2
From equation 1
2x + 3y= 44.50
2x= 44.50-3y
x= 44.50-3y/2
Substitute 44.50-3y/2 for x in equation 2
3x+ 6y= 78
3(44.50-3y/2) + 6y= 78
66.75- 4.5y +6y= 78
66.75 + 1.5y= 78
1.5y= 78-66.75
1.5y= 11.25
y= 11.25/1.5
y = 7.5
Substitute 7.5 for y in equation 1
2x + 3y = 44.50
2x + 3(7.5)= 44.50
2x + 22.5= 44.50
2x = 44.50-22.5
2x= 22
x= 22/2
x= 11
Hence the price of adult ticket is $11 and the price of children ticket is $7.5
do want the odds here is the odds
A / B =
1 / 7 =
1/7
I don't get it, answer what???
