Answer: i. Cost of adult ticket = $ 30

ii.  Cost of child ticket = $20

Step-by-step explanation:

Define variables:

Let x= cost of 1 adult tickets , y= cost of 1 child tickets.

Form linear equations:

5x+3y = 210      (i)

2x+5y= 160  (ii)

Multiply (i) by 2 and (ii) by 5

10x +6y = 420       (iii)

10x+25y = 800        (iv)

Eliminate (iii) from (iv)

19y = 380

⇒ y= 20

Put this in (i)

5x+3(20)=210\Rightarrow\ 5x+60 = 210\\\\\Rightarrow\ 5x=150\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=30

Hence, Cost of adult ticket = $ 30 and Cost of child ticket = $20

You invested money in two funds. Last year, the first fund paid a dividend of 9% and the second a dividend of 3%, and you receiv
pishuonlain [190]

Answer: $7800 was invested at 9%

$5900 was invested at 3%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount invested in the fund that paid a dividend of 9%.

Let y represent the amount invested in the fund that paid a dividend of 3%.

Last year, the first fund paid a dividend of 9% and the second a dividend of 3%, and you received a total of $879. This means that

0.09x + 0.03y = 879- - - - - - - - - 1

This year, the first fund paid a 10% dividend and the second only 1%, and you received a total of $839. It means that

0.1x + 0.01y = 839 - - - - - - - - - -2

Multiplying equation 1 by 0.1 and equation 2 by 0.09, it becomes

0.009x + 0.003y = 87.9

0.009x + 0.0009y = 75.51

Subtracting, it becomes

0.0021y = 12.39

y = 12.39/0.0021

y = 5900

Substituting y = 5900 into equation 1, it becomes

0.09x + 0.03 × 5900 = 879

0.09x + 177 = 879

0.09x = 879 - 177

0.09x = 702

x = 702/0.09

x = 7800

16+2y+y = 7

3y + 16 = 7

3y = -9

y = -3//

so x=10
