Answer:

How many general admission tickets were​ purchased? __<u>136</u>__

How many upper reserved tickets we purchased? _<u>300</u>_

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of general tickets = g.

Let the number of reserved tickets = r.

6.5g + 8r = 3284

g + r = 436

     6.5g + 8r = 3284

(+)   -8g + -8r = -3488

--------------------------------

     -1.5g         = -204

g = 136

g + r = 436

136 + r = 436

r = 300

Answer:

How many general admission tickets were​ purchased? __<u>136</u>__

How many upper reserved tickets we purchased? _<u>300</u>_

Answer:

136 general admission tickets were purchased

300 upper reserved tickets were purchased

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a classic system of equations problem. Let the number of general admission tickets sold be g and the number of reserved tickets sold be r. We can write the following system of equations:

\begin{cases}6.50g+8.00r=3284,\\g+r=436\end{cases}

Multiply the second equation by -8 and add both equations to isolate g:

-8(g+r)=-8(436),\\-8g-8r=-3488,\\\begin{cases}6.50g+8.00r=3284,\\-8g-8r=-3488\end{cases},\\-1.5g=-204,\\g=\frac{-204}{-1.5}=\boxed{136}

Now substitute g=136 into g+r=436 to find the number of reserved tickets sold:

g+r=436,\\136+r=436,\\r=436-136=\boxed{300}

Jay has an album that holds 600 coins. Each page of the album holds 6 coins. If ​39% of the album is​ empty, how many pages are
Nutka1998 [239]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  61

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are 6 coins on each page, then the number of pages for 600 coins is ...

  (600 coins)/(6 coins/page) = 100 pages

__

If 39% are empty, then 100% -39% = 61% are filled.

The number of filled pages is ...

  61% × 100 = 61/100 × 100 = 61 . . . . pages filled

_____

<em>Comment about percent</em>

You can think of the percent symbol (%) and "per 100" (/100) as being interchangeable. 61% = 61/100

("Cent" is used to signify one of 100 parts. A cent is 1/100 of a dollar, for example. In land area, a cent is 1/100 of an acre. Then, "percent" can be thought of as "per cent" or "per 100 parts".)
