4 ( x + 5 ) = x + 8
4 * x + 4 * 5 = x + 8
4 x + 20 = x + 8
4 x - x = 8 - 20
3 x = -12
x = -12 / 3
x = - 4
hope this helps!
Answer:
Yeah that solution is right
Answer:
General admissions sold: 880
Reserved seating sold: 256
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up equation:
Variable x = people who bought general admission
Variable y = people who bought reserved seating
x + y = 1136
5x + 7y = 6192
Isolate a variable in any equation:
Y = 1136 - x
Substitute the value of the variable in the other equation:
5x + 7(1136 - x) = 6192
5x + 7952 - 7x = 6192
-2x + 7952 = 6192
-2x = -1760
x = 880
Substitute the value of x in any equation:
880 + y = 1136
y = 256
Check your work:
880 + 256 = 1136
1136 = 1136
Correct!
5(880) + 7(256) = 6192
4400 + 1792 = 6192
6192 = 6192
Correct!
