 <span>Your Answer: D 

Why.... 

You can make equations out of the information 
Let L be Lin, G be Greg, and F be Fran 

L = 4 + G ---"Lin sold 4 more shirts than Greg" 
F = 3L ---"Fran sold 3 times as many shirts as Lin" 
F + G + L = 51 ---"In total the three sold 51 shirts" 

Use F + G + L = 51 
Substitute the equations in for F and L (because you need to know the G) like this.... 

(3L) + G + (4+G) = 51 

You still have a variable besides G in there... you can use the L= 4+G and substitute again so that there are only G's 

( 3(4+G) ) + G + (4+G) = 51 ---- SIMPLIFY :D 
( 12 + 3G ) + G + 4 + G = 51 
12 + 3G + G + 4 + G = 51 ---Combine like terms 
16 + 5G = 51 </span>

What is the value of x? 3x−8=8x+4/2 Enter your answer in the box
krek1111 [17]

For this case we must find the value of "x" of the following expression:

3x-8 = \frac {8x + 4} {2}

Multiplying by 2 on both sides of the equation:

2 (3x-8) = 8x + 4\\6x-16 = 8x + 4

Subtracting 8x from both sides of the equation:

6x-8x-16 = 4\\-2x-16 = 4

Adding 16 to both sides:

-2x = 4 + 16\\-2x = 20

Dividing between -2 on both sides:

x = \frac {20} {- 2}\\x = -10

Answer:

x = -10

for a special concert by a popular band, the concert hall owner decided to charge $20 per ticket for the first "r" rows and $15
Alecsey [184]
R = 16 according to the problem, so the total amount of income will be:
$20*16 + $15*(40 - 16)
= $320 + <span>$15*(24)
= </span>$320 + <span>$360
= $680
that is the income, but the expenses are $275 so the total revenue is the subtraction of those two
total revenue = $680 - $275
= $405</span>
