Answer: An adult ticket cost $12
A child ticket cost $5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the price for one adult ticket.
Let y represent the price for one child ticket.
A movie theater sold 4 adult tickets and 7 children's tickets for $83 on Friday. It means that
4x + 7y = 83 - - - - - - - - - - - -1
The next day the theater sold 5 adult tickets and 6 children tickets for $90. It means that
5x + 6y = 90 - - - - - - - - - - - -2
Multiplying equation 1 by 5 and equation 2 by 4, it becomes
20x + 35y = 415
20x + 24y = 360
Subtracting, it becomes
11y = 55
y = 55/11 = 5
Substituting y = 5 into equation 1, it becomes
4x + 7 × 5 = 83
4x + 35 = 83
4x = 83 - 35 = 48
x = 48/4 = 12
Boxes = 3_2/5
15 = total number of bags of favors
Each bag has 3 items inside
3 × 15 = 45
Total number of items = number of boxes plus (15 × 3).
So, choice A is the answer.
Answer:
x=-15/2
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Question 7:
Define x :
</u>
Let the digit in the ones place be x.
The digit in the tens place is x+2.
The sum of the digit and its reverse is 66
<u>Find x:</u>
10(x + 2) + x + 10x + (x + 2) = 66
10x + 20 + x + 10x + x + 2 = 66
22x + 22 = 66
22x = 44
x = 2
<u>Find the number:</u>
The number in the ones place = x= 2
The number in the tens place = x = 2 + 2 = 4
Answer : The number is 42.
<u>Question 8:</u>
<u>Define x:</u>
Let the digit in the tens place be x.
The digit in the ones place is x+7.
The number = 10x + x + 7 = 11x + 7
If the digit interchange,
the number = 10(x + 7) + x = 10x + 70 + x = 11x + 70
<u>Find x:
</u>
9(11x + 7) = 2(11x + 70)
99x + 63 = 22x + 140
99x - 22x = 140 - 63
77x = 77
x = 1
<u>Find the number:
</u>
x = 1
x + 7 = 1 + 7 = 8
So the number is 18
Answer: The number is 18.
