Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

- 6x - 4y = 2 → (1)

- 4x - 7y = 2 → (2)

Multiplying (1) by 4 and (2) by - 6 will eliminate the x- term

- 24x - 16y = 8 → (3)

24x + 42y = - 12 → (4)

Add (3) and (4) term by term

26y = - 4 ( divide both sides by  26 )

y = \frac{-4}{26} = - \frac{2}{13}

Answer:

The balcony seat costs $9,  the orchestra seat costs $9 + $6 = $15.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x is the cost/price of one balcony seat, in dollars.

Then the cost of one orchestra seat is (x+6) dollars, according to the condtion.

The total cost of tickets is  

250x + 400*(x+6) = 8250.

Simplify it step by step.

250x + 400x + 2400 = 8250,

650x = 8250 - 2400 = 5850  ====>  x = 5850/650 = 9.

Answer.  The balcony seat costs $9,  the orchestra seat costs $9 + $6 = $15.

Check.   9*250 + 15*400 = 8250.  Correct.

Serhud [2]
Red to yellow.......7:3....added = 10
so 7/10 of the total students wore red and 3/10 of the total students wore yellow

and there are 300 total students...
7/10(300) = 2100/10 = 210 wore red
3/10(300) = 900/10 = 90 wore yellow

how many more wore red.....(210 - 90) = 120 more students wore red then yellow
