First write the equation:
1/2x + 5 = 6

Then subtract five from both sides:

1/2x = 1

Multiply both sides by 2:

x = 2

Equation :
1/2x +5 = 6

Subtract both sides by five:
1/2x = 1

Multipy by 2:

Customer price index is the price index which measures the weight average of price of basket of customers goods or services. The reasonable estimate of the current customer price index is 195. The option B is the correct option.

Given information-

The data table for the given problem is attached below.

<h3>Customer price index</h3>

Customer price index is the price index which measures the weight average of price of basket of customers goods or services. It can be given as,

$CPI_t=\dfrac{C_t}{C_0} \times 100$

Here $C_t$ is the cost of market basket in current period and $C_0$ is the cost of market basket in the base period.

Cost of market basket in current period is.

$C_t=126.85+29.95+2.25+44.25\\C_t=203.3$

Cost of market basket in 1983 is,

$C_0=67.45+15.25+1.15+22.85\\C_0=106.7$

Put the value in the customer price index formula,

$CPI_t=\dfrac{203.3}{106.7} \times 100\\CPI_t=190.5$

Thus the value of current CPI is 190.5 which is near about the 195.

Hence the reasonable estimate of the current customer price index is 195. The option B is the correct option.

Answer:

6/5÷31/10=12/31

Step-by-step explanation:

6/5÷31/10=?Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal (inverse) of the second fraction.

Take the reciprocal of the second fraction by flipping the numerator and denominator and changing the operation to multiplication. Then the equation becomes

6/5×10/31=?

For fraction multiplication, multiply the numerators and then multiply the denominators to get

6×10 5×31=60/155

This fraction can be reduced by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor of 60 and 155 using

GCF(60,155) = 5

60÷51 55÷5=12/31

Therefore:

65÷3110=12/31

Answer:

Adult: 50 tickets

Child: 34 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a be the amount of adult tickets

Let c be the amount of child tickets

Equation:

a + c = 84

14a + 9c = 1,006

Step 1: Multiply a + c = 84 with -9, to canceled c.

-9 (a + c = 84) → -9a - 9c = -756

14a + 9c = 1006 → 14a + 9c = 1006

Step 2: Combined the 2 equation together, and solved it.

-9a - 9c = -756

5 5

a = 50

Step 3: Plug 50 into the one of the equation, and solved it.

a + c = 84 → 50 + c = 84

c = 34

Answer: Adult tickets (a) = 50 and Child tickets (c) = 34

To check the answer plug the two number into the equation ( Make sure to add 50 for a and 34 for c).
