Okay, to start, we can multiply the $2 coupon by two because that is the amount of pairs she is going to by. So it would be $4 off. Now, if all of the shoes she purchased the same price, this is made a little easier. We can simply take $80 and $122 and add it by the $4 discount. Our new numbers would be $84 and $126. Now in order for this to work we would want all the numbers to be the same. We take $84 and divide it by three pairs, to get the values. For the least amount she can spend per pair is $28 and the most amount she can spend per pair is $42.
Answer:
0.35 is one thousandth of 350
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> the number
we know that
The number multiplied by one thousandth must be equal to 0.35
so
The linear equation that represent this situation is
solve for x
Multiply both sides by 1,000
therefore
0.35 is one thousandth of 350
241 + 800 = 1041
247 + 794 = 1041
Answer:
adult tickets = 17, children tickets = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of children and y the number of adults
Then given that 26 tickets are sold, we can write
x + y = 26 → (1)
Given that ticket cost was $194 we can write
5.5x + 8.5y = 194 → (2)
Rearrange (1) expressing y in terms of x by subtracting x from both sides
y = 26 - x → (3)
Substitute y = 26 - x into (2)
5.5x + 8.5(26 - x) = 194 ← distribute and simplify left side
5.5x + 221 - 8.5x = 194
- 3x + 221 = 194 ( subtract 221 from both sides )
- 3x = - 27 ( divide both sides by - 3 )
x = 9
Substitute x = 9 into (3) for corresponding value of y
y = 26 - 9 = 17
Hence number of adult tickets sold = 17
number of children tickets sold = 9
Answer:
Eva's age is 44 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> Brita's age
y ----> Eva's age
we know that
The sum or their ages 118
so
----> equation A
The difference in age between Brita and her daughter Eva is 30 years
so
----> equation B
Solve the system by elimination
Adds equation A and equation B
<em>Find the value of y</em>
substitute the value of x in any equation
therefore
Eva's age is 44 years
