Let x be the unknown amount of child tickets
Let 450 - x be the unknown amount of adult tickets (This is because the total amount subtracted from the child tickets can only be the adult tickets since there are no other tickets)
2x+5(450-x)=1800
(2x because each child ticket cost $2 and same for the adult tickets. Each adult ticket cost $5. So, the sum must be 1800.)
Simplify the equation.
2x+5(450-x)=1800 *Distribute*
2x+2250-5x=1800 *Combine like terms. (2-5=-3)*
-3x + 2250 = 1800 *Move constants and variables to opposite sides*
-2250 -2250
---------------------------
-3x=-450 *Divide by 3 to isolate the variable*
---- ------
-3 -3
x=150
So, there are 150 child tickets. To find adult tickets, just subtract children tickets from the amount of tickets bought (450-150) to get 300 adult tickets sold.
Answer:
I am pretty sure it would be c
Step-by-step explanation:
As there are 60 minutes in an hour the rate per minute is 24/60 = 0.4 km/minute.
Distance travelled in 20 minutes = 20*0.4 = 8 km.
(i) The product of the two expressions is equal to the product of their factors. (ii) The product of the two expressions is equal to the product of their H.C.F. and L.C.M. 2.
Step-by-step explanation (Question 1):
<u>Step 1: (Question 1): Subtract x from both sides.</u>
5x+3=x+13
5x+3−x=x+13−x
4x+3=13
<u>Step 2: (Question 1): Subtract 3 from both sides.</u>
4x+3−3=13−3
4x=10
<u>Step 3: (Question 1): Divide both sides by 4.</u>
4x/4 = 10/4
FIRST ANSWER: x = 5/2
Step-by-step explanation (Question 2):
<u>Step 1: (Question 2): Multiply by LCM</u>
15x^2 - 6 = x
<u>Step 2: (Question 2): Solve 15x^2</u>
15x^2 - 6 = x:
x = 2/3
x = -3/5
<u>Step 3: (Question 2): Solve</u>
ANSWER: x=0.666667 or x=−0.6
See Attachment 1 for question 1 steps (FULL)
See Attachment 2 for question 2 steps (FULL)
Answer:
1) x = 5/2
2) x=0.666667 or x=−0.6
Hope this helps.
