First, do distributive property. 3 • x and 3 • -4. Now you get 3x-12=12. Now add 12 to both sides. Now you have 3x=24. Now divide by 3 to get your x alone and you answer which is 8!

Solve for x, 12y+6=6(y+1)

Vanyuwa [196]

For this case we must solve the following equation:

$12y + 6 = 6 (y + 1)$

We apply distributive property on the right side of the equation:

$12y + 6 = 6y + 6$

We subtract 6y on both sides of the equation:

$12y-6y + 6 = 6\\6y + 6 = 6$

We subtract 6 from both sides of the equation:

$6y = 6-6\\6y = 0$

Dividing by 6 on both sides of the equation:

$y = 0$

So, the result is $y = 0$

Answer:

$y = 0$

a school musical soild 353 tickets. $5 for adults and $3.50 for students. the school made $1500 how many adult tickets were sold

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

177 Students

176 Adults

Step-by-step explanation:

Adult - (A) $5

Student - (S) $3.50

Equation 1: A+S = 353 tickets

Equation 2: 5A + 3.50S = $1500

Sub equation 1 into 2:

5A + 3.50(353 - A) = 1500

Multiply: 5A + 1235.50 -3.50A =1500

Subtract 1235.50 and -3.50A from both sides: 1.50A = 264.50 and then divide:

264.50/1.50 = 176 Adults

Sub into equation 1:

176 +S = 353

Solve: 353 - 176 = 177 Students

Check: 5(176) + 3.50(177) = $1500

1499.5 rounded = 1500 = 1500 ✔

I hope this helped!
