No, actually the method is not correct. Adiya needed to take x2 and subtract it from 20x. she would then get 6 = 18x. Have in mind also that she needed to divide 18. So 6 = 18x turns into 6=X. That is why is incorrect
155 = 2x -15
170 = 2x
85 = x
She had 85 when she first started.
If the goal is to sell at least $1500 worth of tickets then what you can do is add the 12.50+ 6.25 which well equal 18.75. Then you can divide 1500/18.75 which eqauls to 80 meaning at least 80 seats must be sold
Answer:
x=36
Step-by-step explanation:
5x=180
x=180/5=36
X+y=2(x-y)
x+y=2x-2y
3y=x
x-2y=2
then,substitute
(3y)-2y=2
y=2
so,x=3(2)
x=6
x the largest
y the smallest
