Answer:
Alvin: 49
Elga: 40
Step-by-step explanation:
- The equation is 89 = x + (x-9).
- Remove the parenthesis and combine the like terms. 89 = 2x - 9
- Add 9 on both sides. 98 = 2x
- Divide by 2 on both sides. x = 49
- 49 is the age of Alvin. (49-9) 40 is the age of Elga.
Answer:
Explanation:
[ Divide Both Sides By 12y ]
12xy / 12y = 5z / 12y

1.)
Between year 0 and year 1, we went from $50 to $55.
$55/$50 = 1.1
The price increased by 10% from year 0 to year 1.
Between year 2 and year 1, we went from $55 to $60.50.
$60.50/$55 = 1.1
The price also increased by 10% from year 1 to year 2. If we investigate this for each year, we will see that the price increases consistently by 10% every year.
The sequence can be written as an = 50·(1.1)ⁿ
2.) To determine the price in year 6, we can use the sequence formula we established already.
a6 = 50·(1.1)⁶ = $88.58
The price of the tickets in year 6 will be $88.58.
