Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that cesar left the college traveling 12 mph. Then, 4 hours later, Gabriel left traveling the same direction at 24 mph.
Before Gabriel started Cesar would have travelled for 4 hours
So distance travelled by Cesar in 4 hours
Thus Cesar is ahead of Gabriel by 48 miles
Difference of speed
So to catch Cesar time required = 48/difference in speed
= 4 hours
It will take 4 hours.
Answer:
81 adult tickets
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
Set up a system of equations
Since the adult tickets and student tickets add to 243, we can do
and the student tickets sold were 2x the adult tickets, we can do
We can replace s in the first equation adding to 243 with 2a
Step 2:
Solve for a. We can divide both sides by 3.
Therefore, there were 81 adult tickets sold.
Step 3:
We can check our work! Since we learned earlier the student tickets are 2x adult tickets, we can multiply 81 by 2 and add that to 81 to see if it equals 243!
And...
So, 81 must be the answer!
