Answer:

Adult= $11

Children = $7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent adult ticket and y represent children ticket

2x + 3y= 44.50........equation 1

3x + 6y= 78........equation 2

From equation 1

2x + 3y= 44.50

2x= 44.50-3y

x= 44.50-3y/2

Substitute 44.50-3y/2 for x in equation 2

3x+ 6y= 78

3(44.50-3y/2) + 6y= 78

66.75- 4.5y +6y= 78

66.75 + 1.5y= 78

1.5y= 78-66.75

1.5y= 11.25

y= 11.25/1.5

y = 7.5

Substitute 7.5 for y in equation 1

2x + 3y = 44.50

2x + 3(7.5)= 44.50

2x + 22.5= 44.50

2x = 44.50-22.5

2x= 22

x= 22/2

x= 11

Hence the price of adult ticket is $11 and the price of children ticket is $7.5

Answer:

Answer:

Adult= $11

Children = $7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent adult ticket and y represent children ticket

2x + 3y= 44.50........equation 1

3x + 6y= 78........equation 2

From equation 1

2x + 3y= 44.50

2x= 44.50-3y

x= 44.50-3y/2

Substitute 44.50-3y/2 for x in equation 2

3x+ 6y= 78

3(44.50-3y/2) + 6y= 78

66.75- 4.5y +6y= 78

66.75 + 1.5y= 78

1.5y= 78-66.75

1.5y= 11.25

y= 11.25/1.5

y = 7.5

Substitute 7.5 for y in equation 1

2x + 3y = 44.50

2x + 3(7.5)= 44.50

2x + 22.5= 44.50

2x = 44.50-22.5

2x= 22

x= 22/2

x= 11

Hence the price of adult ticket is $11 and the price of children ticket is $7.5

25% of what number is 9
Alexeev081 [22]
Keep in mind the the word "percent" translates to "for each 100." 25% can be read as "25 for each 100," which has the fractional representation \frac{25}{100} and the decimal representation 0.25. All of these representations are just different ways of writing the same value.

Note too that the fraction \frac{25}{100} can be reduced to \frac{1}{4}, so what the question is really asking is: 1/4 of what number is 9?

Well, if we know that 1/4 of the number is 9, we can easily find how large the whole number is by finding all 4/4 of it (the <em>whole</em> number)<em /><em />, or 4 x 9, which multiplies out to 36.
