Answer:

Firstly, rewrite the equation:

⅓ (18 + 27) = 81

Substitute x for the given number of it's supposed equivalent.

In this case x = 12.

⅓ (18(12) + 27) = 81

Solve using PEMDAS and simplify what is in the parenthesis first. Then, multiply.

(18 x 12) + 27 = 243

Now, solving using PEMDAS, multiply the total of what you got that was originally in the parenthesis by ⅓ .

⅓ (243) = 81

When you multiple these number they are equivalent to 81.

81 = 81

Since the equation given, when substituted x for 12, is equivalent to 81, this proves that substituting x for 12 makes this equation true.

Dominik [7]

Answer: the price of a senior citizen's ticket is $8.

the price of a child's ticket is $14

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the price of a senior citizen's ticket.

Let y represent the price of a child's ticket.

On the first day of ticket sales, the school sold 3 senior citizen tickets and 1 child ticket for a total of $38. It means that

3x + y = 38- - - - - - - - - - - -1

The school took in $52 on the second day by selling 3 senior citizen and 2 child tickets. It means that

3x + 2y = 52- - - - - - - - - - - -2

Subtracting equation 2 from equation 1, it becomes

- y = - 14

y = 14

Substituting y = 14 into equation 1, it becomes

3x + 14 = 38

3x = 38 - 14 = 24

x = 24/3

x = 8
