Step-by-step explanation:
his father's age= 4x
his mother's age= 4x- 7
his age= x
x+4x+4x-7=101
x+ 4x+ 4x= 101+ 7
9x= 108
= 
x= 12

Answer:
503 $1 tickets sold.
Step-by-step explanation:
Use two equations
Let x = number of $1 tickets sold
Let y = number of $1.50 tickets sold
x + y = 739
1x + (1.5)y = 857
First equation ==> y = 739 - x
Plug this into the second equation
x + (1.5)(739 - x) = 857
x + 1108.5 - 1.5x = 857
- 0.5x = -251.5
x = 503
There were 503 $1 tickets sold.
To find the number of $1.50 tickets, just plug this value of x into either one of the equations.
(503) + y = 739 (739 - 503 = 236)
y = 236
There were 236 $1.50 tickets sold.
2x-7=43
2x=50
x=25
I hope I helped you with your solution! If you could give me brainliest, I would be very thankful!
Answer:
we can only give brainliest if we ourselves have asked the a question ( to which she/he answered)
Without LCD :
1/2(4x + 6) = 1/3(9x - 24)
2x + 3 = 3x - 8
2x - 3x = -8 - 3
-x = - 11
x = 11
with LCD :
1/2(4x + 6) = 1/3(9x - 24) ...multiply by 6
3(4x + 6) = 2(9x - 24)
12x + 18 = 18x - 48
12x - 18x = -48 - 18
-6x = - 66
x = -66/-6
x = 11
Yes, the answers are the same :)
