Answer:
adult $8.00
child $5.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the price of 1 adult ticket = x.
Let the price of 1 child ticket = y.
2x + 4y = 38
3x + 3y = 40.5
Multiply the first equation by 3. Multiply the second equation by -2. Then add them.
6x + 12y = 114
(+) -6x - 6y = -81
-----------------------------
6y = 33
y = 33/6
y = 5.5
2x + 4y = 38
2x + 4(5.5) = 38
2x + 22 = 38
2x = 16
x = 8
Answer:
adult $8.00
child $5.50
3x-9-5x = -7
combine like terms -9-2x = -7
add 9 to both sides
-2x = 2
divide both sides by -2
x - 2/-2 = -1
x = -1
Answer:
6x + 5/6
Step-by-step explanation:
2(x + 1/4) + 2(2x + 1/3)
2x + 1/2 + 4x + 2/3
6x + 5/6
