Answer:
5x=15
Step-by-step explanation:
5pounds times the price per pound (x) equals $15
X= number of adult tickets
y=number of child tickets.
we can suggest this system of equations:
x+y=118 ⇒x=118-y
7.5x+3y=696
we can solve this system of equations by substitution method:
7.5(118-y)+3y=696
885-7.5y+3y=696
-4.5y=-189
y=-189/-4.5
y=42
x=118-y
x=118-42
x=76
Answer: the number of adult tickets sold was 76.
To simplify
![\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{24x^6y}{128x^4y^5}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7B%5Cdfrac%7B24x%5E6y%7D%7B128x%5E4y%5E5%7D%7D)
we need to use the fact that
![\sqrt[4]{x^4}=|x|](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7Bx%5E4%7D%3D%7Cx%7C)
Why the absolute value? It's because 
.
We start by rewriting as
![\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{2^23x^6y}{2^6x^4y^5}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7B%5Cdfrac%7B2%5E23x%5E6y%7D%7B2%5E6x%5E4y%5E5%7D%7D)
![\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{2^23x^4x^2y}{2^42^2x^4y^4y}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7B%5Cdfrac%7B2%5E23x%5E4x%5E2y%7D%7B2%5E42%5E2x%5E4y%5E4y%7D%7D)
Since 
, we have 
, and the above reduces to
![\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{3x^2y}{2^4y^4y}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7B%5Cdfrac%7B3x%5E2y%7D%7B2%5E4y%5E4y%7D%7D)
Then we pull out any 4th powers under the radical, and simplify everything we can:
![\dfrac1{\sqrt[4]{2^4y^4}}\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{3x^2y}{y}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac1%7B%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7B2%5E4y%5E4%7D%7D%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7B%5Cdfrac%7B3x%5E2y%7D%7By%7D%7D)
![\dfrac1{|2y|}\sqrt[4]{3x^2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac1%7B%7C2y%7C%7D%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7B3x%5E2%7D)
where 
allows us to write 
, and this also means that 
. So we end up with
![\dfrac{\sqrt[4]{3x^2}}{2y}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac%7B%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7B3x%5E2%7D%7D%7B2y%7D)
making the last option the correct answer.
Let the number be x, then
1/5 * x = 2/3 * 90
1/5 x = 60
x = 60 * 5 = 300 (answer)
Forget the '34' part of 8:34 and the '18' minutes from 3 hours and 18 minutes for now.
Just add 3 hours on to 8, to get 11. Then, bring back the 34 and 18 and add them together. 34 + 12 = 52. Now put that 52 on the end of the 11, and you get 11:52 as the end time.
