Answer: The numbers are:

965

875

785

695

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a 3 digit number that can be written as:

a*100 + b*10 + c

Where a, b, and c are single-digit numbers.

a is the hundreds

b is the tens

c is the unit.

We know that:

"The sum of the tens digit and the hundreds digit of a number is three times the units digit."

a + b = 3*c

" 1/5 of the sum of all three digits is 1 less than the units digit."

(a + b + c)/5 = c - 1

Then we have the two conditions:

a + b = 3*c

(a + b + c)/5 = c - 1

From the first one, we can write:

(a + b)/3 = c

Replacing that in the other equation we get:

(a + b + a/3 + b/3)/5 = a/3 + b/3 - 1

(4/3)*(a + b)/5 = (a/3 + b/3) - 1

(4/15)*(a + b) = (a + b)/3 - 1

(4/15)*(a + b) - (a + b)/3 = - 1

-(1/15)*(a + b) = -1

a  = 15 - b

Then we can give different values for b, and find the values of a and c, where a and c must be positive.

b = 9

a = 15 - 9 = 6

Then:

c = (9 + 6)/3 = 5

(notice that a + b = 15, then c will be always equal to 5, reggardless of the values of b and a).

This number will be:

695.

if b = 8, then:

a = 15 - 8 = 7

and c = 5, same as before.

the number is 785.

If b = 7, then:

a = 15 - 7 = 8

The number is 875

if b = 6, then:

a = 15 - 6 = 9

The number is:

965

The perimeter of a rectangular parking lot is 296 m if the width of the parking lot is 65 m , what is its length
Sophie [7]

Answer:

166

Step-by-step explanation:

So the width is 65, so two sides are each 65m long. So multiply 65*2 which is 130. this means that the other two sides need to equal 130 when added, so divide 130/2 which is 65

At a regional soccer​ tournament, tickets for two adults and seven students cost ​$60. Tickets for three adults and eleven stude
den301095 [7]

Answer:

The price of an adult ticket is $9 and the price of a student ticket is $6

Step-by-step explanation:

Create a system of equations where x is the price of an adult ticket and y is the price of a student ticket:

2x + 7y = 60

3x + 11y = 93

Solve by elimination by multiplying the top equation by 3 and the bottom equation by -2, to cancel out the x terms:

6x + 21y = 180

-6x - 22y = -186

Add them together:

-y = -6

y = 6

Then, plug in 6 as y into one of the equations to solve for x:

2x + 7y = 60

2x + 7(6) = 60

2x + 42 = 60

2x = 18

x = 9

So, the price of an adult ticket is $9 and the price of a student ticket is $6
