x = number of adult tickets
y = number of children tickets
9x + 6y = 1053
x+y = 127 so x = 127 - y
replace x = 127 - y into 9x + 6y = 1053
9(127 - y) + 6y = 1053
1143 -9y + 6y = 1053
-3y = 1053 -1143
-3y = -90
y = 30
x = 127 - 30
x = 97
answer: 97 adults and 30 children
3x +7x+x+x should be your answer
Answer: x = 4
Step-by-step explanation: To solve this equation, we could go right to our steps of subtracting 5.4 from both sides, but I would do a slightly different approach.
Since I hate working with decimals, I would get rid of them.
We can do this by multiplying both sides of the equation by 10, and remember to multiply every term by 10 to keep it balanced.
*Multiplying by 10 shifts the decimal point 1 place to the right
So we have 35x + 54 = 194 which looks a lot better.
Now subtract 54 from both sides to get 35x = 140.
Now divide both sides by 35 and x = 4.
I don't think parallelograms have symmetry
