Senior tickets (x)
Child tickets (y)
First day: 3x + 5y = 70
second day: 12x + 12y = 216
Solve the system of equations (use elimination)
Multiply first equation by -4 -4(3x + 5y = 70), which makes it
-12x - 20y = -280
(+)12x + 12y = 216 add to second equation
-8y = -64
divide by -8. y = 8
Plugin the y value to either equation ( I will choose first equation)
3x + 5(8) =70
3x+ 40 = 70
3x = 30
x = 10
Senior tickets are $10, child tickets are $8
total that play football = 40
30 of them play basket ball
the missing number is 40 - 30 = 10
Answer:
Distance = 7.6
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer would be (-1,-4) because -1 is the z factor and -4 is the why then solve to make them equal the same thing.
Answer:
He would gain by choosing air travel if, and only if, he values his time at more than $5 per hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem states that:
A bus ticket from Washington to St. Louis costs $100, while it takes 32 hours to arrive.
A plane ticket from Washington to St. Louis costs $250, while it takes 2 hours to arrive.
Other things constant, Andrew would gain by choosing air travel if, and only if, he values his time at more than
If Andrew choses to go by plane, he saves 32-2 = 30 hours at the expense of $250-$100 = $150.
So, dividing the extra cost by the number of hours saved:

He would gain by choosing air travel if, and only if, he values his time at more than $5 per hour.
