Step-by-step explanation:
Okay bro who gave you this question. I attempted to do this and I assumed it was a right triangle. That means a^2 + b^2 = c^2:
(x-5)^2 + (2x+1)^2 = (4x+3)^2
I plugged this into symbolabs and got a positive value for x to be which is approx 0.482. It does work when you plug it back in but that means x-5 < 0 which isn't possible. So unless you wrote something down wrong, this question technically doesn't make any logical sense.

The two problems are almost identical: you have to set up a system, and then solve it.
In the first case, let and
be, respectively, the number of girls and boys.
We know that (the number of girls in the Spanish Club is four more than twice the number of boys). Also, we know that
(there are 61 students in total).
So, we have the system
We can use the first equation to substitute in the second
And then solve for :
For the second problem, let and
be the number of pins knocked down by, respectively, Carrie and John. Just like before, we have the system
And you can solve it in the very same way we solved the previous one.
Answer:
The number of tickets for sale at $26 should be 3300
The number of tickets for sale at $40 should be 1700
Step-by-step explanation:
Use 2 equations to represent the modifiers within the problem:
Now you want to find the point at which the variables are changed to make both equations correct, this can be done by graphing and finding the intersection of both lines.
