50 adult tickets and 20 children tickets were sold for the concert.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Number of concert tickets sold = 70

Revenue generated = $550

Cost of each adult ticket = $9

Cost of each child ticket = $5

Let,

x be the number of adult tickets sold

y be the number of child tickets sold

According to given statement;

x+y=70        Eqn 1

9x+5y=550    Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 5

5(x+y=70)\\5x+5y=350\ \ \ Eqn\ 3

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2

(9x+5y)-(5x+5y)=550-350\\9x+5y-5x-5y=200\\4x=200

Dividing both sides by 4

\frac{4x}{4}=\frac{200}{4}\\x=50

Putting x=50 in Eqn 1

50+y=70\\y=70-50\\y=20

50 adult tickets and 20 children tickets were sold for the concert.

Answer: 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be y

Add 5 to me

Y+5............equ1

Divide by 7

Y+5/7

Add 12

Y+5/7+12

Subtract 7

(Y+5)/7+(12-7)=10

12-7=5

Substitute

(Y+5)/7+5=10

Find the lowest common multiple

((Y+5)+7(5))/7=10

(Y+5)+35)/7=10

Cross multiply

Y+5+35=70

Y+40=70

Y=70-40

Y=30

The unknown number is 30

What is 7 7/9 divided by 4/7
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

4 44/49

Step-by-step explanation:

7 7/9 is 70/9

then u use 70/9 multiply by 7/4(I call it keep, change, flip method for division of fraction)

You keep the 1st fraction and because it is a mixed fraction, changing it to improper fraction is easier to solve it later on.

after that, you change the division sign to multiply sign(÷ to ×)

then you flip the 2nd fraction, which means 7/4 becomes 4/7

So overall it becomes 60/7 × 4/7 =240/49,4 44/49 as a mixed fraction.

Answer is 4 44/49
