Let x represent lower level tickets that cost $77
Let y represent upper level tickets that cost $99
Cost equation: 77x + 99y = 247,071
Tickets equation: x + y = 2615
Using the elimination method, multiply the second equation by -77:
77x + 99y = 247,071
-77x - 77y = -201,355
--> 22y = 45,716
--> y = 2,078
Now plug "y" into either equation and solve for "x". I chose the Tickets equation. x + y = 2615 → x = 2615 - y → x = 2615 - 2078 → x = 537
Answer: lower level = 537 tickets, upper level = 2078 tickets.
2x-5=15
2x=20
x=10
the answer is B
Answer:
B. 42 - (-26)
Explanation:
Answer:
x+23 = 47
Step-by-step explanation:
Let age of Carlos is x. It is mentioned that the sum of age of Carlos and his mother is 47 years old. Age of Carlos is 23.
We need to find the equation that represents the sum of Carlos' age with his mother.
x+23 = 47 is the required equation.
Also, we can find the age of Carlos as :
x = 47 - 23
= 24 years
Hence, the correct option is (B).
