Answer:
The solution of the system is the ordered pair (-13,-4)
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
-----> equation A
----> equation B
Solve the system by elimination
Multiply by 2 both sides equation B
----> equation C
Adds equation A and equation C

<em>Find the value of a</em>
substitute the value of b in any equation (i take equation B)



therefore
The solution of the system is the ordered pair (-13,-4)

Answer:
258
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up the two equations needed (x is the adult tickets and y is the student tickets)
x+y=372
6x+2y=1776
Solve by elimination
-2(x+y=372)
=-2x-2y=-744
Cancel like figures:
-2x-2y=-744
6x+2y=1776
= 4x=1032
x=258
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
3+5=8
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
win
There are 3 face cards / suit. Every suit contains a Jack, Queen, and king.
There are 4 suits so the number of face cards is 3*4 = 12
There is 1 ace / suit
There are 4 suits so the number of aces is 1 * 4 = 4
The gain from the face cards = 12 * 13 = 156
The gain from the aces = 4 * 3 = 12
Total gain = 168
Losses
Any other card costs you $5
How many cards is that? 52 - 16 = 36
Each one costs 5 dollars
Total loss = 5 * 36 = 180
So each time you play the game, you can expect to lose 180 - 68 = 12 dollars. You should walk away quickly from this one.
