Jillian’s school is selling tickets for a play. The tickets cost $10.50 for adults and $3.75 for students. The ticket sales for

opening night totaled $2071.50. The equation 10.50 a plus 3.75 b equals 2071.50, where a is the number of adult tickets sold and b is the number of student tickets sold, can be used to find the number of adult and student tickets. If 82 students attended, how may adult tickets were sold?

Answer:

168 adult tickets were sold

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the amount of students by the cost of the student ticket (82 times 3.75) which equals 307.5 . Subtract that from the total amount earned (2071.5) and you get 1764. Divide that by the cost of an adult ticket (10.50), and you'll get the amount of adults who attended, which is 168.

Deon rented a truck for one day. There was a base fee of $20.95 , and there was an additional charge of 90 cents for each mile d
Zanzabum
Since 20.95 is the base value, that's the start of our equation. Next, since it costs 90 cents for each mile, the cost per mile is 0.90*x miles due to that for every mile, it costs 90 cents. We wrote it as 0.90 due to that we're writing it in dollars as 20.95 is in dollars. Adding them up, we get 20.95+0.90x = 270.25 (the total cost). Subtracting 20.95 from both sides, we get 0.9x=240.3 and divide both sides by 0.9 to get 267

The marked price of an article is 30% above it's selling price and the cost price is 35%less than it's marked price. find the di
SashulF [63]

Answer:

Let C be the cost price of the article. Then:

C(1+30%)=marked price

So:

C(1+30%)=C(1.3)

=1.3C

If the article is then marked down 35%, then its’ price would be:

1.3C(1–35%)=1.3C(.65)

=0.845 or 84.5% of its’ cost

Then:

0.845–1=-0.155

or, a 15.5% loss on the item
