Answer:

Part A:

x + y = 80

x + 20 = y

Part B:

Pam spends 30 minutes practicing math every day.

Part C:

It is not possible for Pam to have spent 60 minutes practicing dance because this means she must have practiced math for 40 minutes (60 - 20 = 40). This would total out to 100 minutes of total practice, not 80 minutes. Therefore, this is impossible.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

"She spends 80 minutes every day practicing dance and math."

x + y = 80

"She dances for 20 minutes longer than she works on math."

x + 20 = y

Part B:

Solve for x:

x + 20 = y

Isolate variable x:

x = y - 20

Plug in this new value for the first equation:

y - 20 + y = 80

Combine like terms:

2y - 20 = 80

Isolate variable y:

2y = 100

y = 50

Plug in the new value of y into any equation:

x + 50 = 80

Isolate variable x:

x = 30

Part C:

x + 20 = y

x + 20 = 60

x = 40

x + y = 80

40 + 60 = 80

100 = 80

Impossible.

Answer:

Pam likes to practice dancing while preparing for a math tournament. She spends 80 minutes every day practicing dance and math.To help her concentrate better, she dances for 20 minutes longer than she works on math.

Solution given:

let math be x and dance be y.

<u>She spends 80 minutes every day practicing dance and math.</u><u>means</u><u>:</u>

x+y=80......[I]

and

<u>she dances for 20 minutes longer than she works on math.</u><u>means</u><u>:</u>

y=x+20.......[2]

Part A: Write a pair of linear equations to show the relationship between the number of minutes Pam practices math every day (x) and the number of minutes she dances every day (y).

Solution given:

solving equation [I]

x+y=80

x=80-y is a linear equation for x(math)

and

y=x+20 is a linear equation for y (dance)

Part B: How much time does Pam spend practicing math every day? Show your work. (3 points)

Substituting value of y in equation [I]

x+(x+20)=80

<u>open</u><u> </u><u>bracket</u>

x+x+20=80

<u>subtract</u><u> </u><u>both</u><u> </u><u>side</u><u> </u><u>by</u><u> </u><u>2</u><u>0</u>

2x+20-20=80-20

2x=60

<u>dividing</u><u> </u><u>both</u><u> </u><u>side</u><u> </u><u>by</u><u> </u><u>2</u>

2x/2=60/2

2x/2=60/2x=30min

<h3><u>Pam spends 30 minutes practicing math every </u><u>day</u><u>.</u></h3>

<u> </u>

Part C: Is it possible for Pam to have spent 60 minutes practicing dance if she practices for a total of exactly 80 minutes and dances for 20 minutes longer than she works on her math? Explain your reasoning.

<u>N</u><u>o</u><u> </u><u>i</u><u>t</u><u> </u><u>i</u><u>s</u><u> </u><u>n</u><u>o</u><u>t</u><u> </u><u>p</u><u>o</u><u>s</u><u>s</u><u>i</u><u>b</u><u>l</u><u>e</u><u>:</u>

y=60

x+20=y....[I]

substituting value of y

x=60-20

x=40

now

total =x+y=40+60=100

which is not equal to 80°

Answer: In first question, Number of student's ticket(s) = 400

And number of adult's ticket(d) = 100

In second question, The goal of $3050 fell by $710

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Since, Here d represents the number of adult tickets and s represents the number of student tickets.

And, all 500 seats are filled for a​ performance.

Therefore, s + d = 500 ------(1)

Also, the price of one adult's  ticket = $8.50

The price of one student's ticket= $5.50

And, their is a revenue of $3050 by selling the tickets.

Thus, 8.50 d + 5.50 s = 3050 --------(2)

By solving the equation (1) and equation (2),

we get, s = 400, d=100

Thus, Number of student's ticket(s) = 400

And number of adult's ticket(d) = 100

2. According to the question,

s = 2 d  ----- (3)

s + d = 360 -----(4)

By solving equation (3) and (4),

We get, s = 240 and d = 120

thus, the total revenue after selling 360 tickets = 8.50 × 120 + 5.50 × 240 = $2340

But, the goal is $3050 ( according to the question)

Thus the total fall = 3050 - 2340 = $710
