36 divided by 2 is 18
That mean each basketball is $18
18 dollars multiplied by 3 basketballs is 54
Three basket balls cost $54
18= (d - 0.25d) - 0.25d
18= 0.75d - 0.25d
18= 0.50d
d = 36
the original price was $36
Answer:
2B / (mx) = y
Step-by-step explanation:
B = 1/2 mxy
Multiply each side by 2
2B = 2* 1/2 mxy
2B = mxy
Divide each side by mx
2B / (mx) = mxy / (mx)
2B / (mx) = y
I think x = 78
because 21/14 = 1.5
so x = 1.5*52
x = 78
Answer:
1200 children and 1500 Adults
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose x be the children and y be the adults as total people are 2700 that have entered so we can write an equation as
x+y=2700 (Equation 1)
and as per child $1.50 is the cost and $4 for every adult and collectively we have got $7800 so we can write the equation as
1.50x+4y=7800 (Equation 2)
Extracting the value of y from equation 1
Y=2700-x (Equation 3)
Putting the value of y from equation 3 into equation 2
1.50x+4(2700-x)=7800
1.50x+10800-4x=7800
1.50x-4x=7800-10800
-2.5x=-3000
Cancellation of negative signs on both sides
x=3000/2.5
x=1200
Putting the value of x in equation 3 to get the value of y
y=2700-1200
y=1500
