Your equation should be
$4(40 tickets) + $5(X) = $400
160 +5x = 400
-160 -160
0 5x = 340
divide both sides by 5
5x/5 = 340/5
x = 68
so they need to sell 68 tickets at the door.
4(40) + 5(68) = 400
160 + 340 + 400
400 + 400
X-13=42
x is the "variable", you're taking 13 away from that, and the answer is also given, 42.
The answer is a............
Answer:
C. 50
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangles are proportional and that is why you can find the scale factor. Set up a proportion (equivalent fractions). Set the proportion up with the corresponding sides together on thee top or the bottom of the proportion.
<u>65 </u> = <u> 91</u>
x 70
91x = 65 * 70
<u>91x</u> = <u>4550</u>
91 91
x = 50
