Let x = number of adult tickets, and y = number of children tickets. One equation must deal with the number of tickets, and the other equation must deal with the revenue from the tickets.
Then x + y = 300 is the number of tickets
12x + 8y = 3280 is the revenue from the tickets.
Using the substitution method:
x + y = 300 ⇒ y = 300 - x ⇒ Equation (3)
12x + 8y = 3280 ⇒ 12x + 8(300-x) = 3280 ⇒ x = 220
y = 300 - x ⇒ y = 300-220 ⇒ 80
Therefore 220 adult tickets and 80 children's tickets were sold.
Answer:
All we do is do 3.5 x 5 to get 17.5 water!
Step-by-step explanation:
Look at the table for each type of bird. 5x=15. 6x=18. 10x=30. What would you multiply each of those by to get your answer and find the difference? 5x=15; x= 3. It is the same for each number. So the difference is by 3. I think if I understand this correctly, that would be how you do it. Does this help?
Answer:
24.269
Step-by-step explanation:
A) write an equation you can solve to find the cost of one ticket
x=cost of one ticket.
9x+5=104
b)
I have to solve this equation.
1)adding -5 to each side
2) dividing both sides by 9
c)
9x+5=104
1) 9x+5-5=104-5
9x=99
2) 9x/9=99/9
x=11
the cost of each ticket was $11
