We have 2 types of tickets, A tickets and B tickets. The total number of tickets sold was 500, so an equation for this NUMBER of tickets is A + B = 500. The MONEY equation is something different. A tickets cost 10, so they are represented by 10A; B tickets cost 60, so they are represented by 60B. The total dollar sales for A and B are 6000. Our money equation for the sales is 10A + 60B = 6000. Solve the first equation for A: A = 500 - B. Sub that value for A into the second equation to solve for B: 10(500-B) + 60B = 6000. Distribute through the parenthesis to get 5000 - 10B + 60B = 6000. Combine like terms to get 50B = 1000. B = 20. There were 20 type B tickets sold. A = 500 - B, so A = 500 - 20 and A = 480. There were 480 type A tickets sold.
Answer:
x = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation:
(5x+1) + (12x-8) = 180
You are doing this because both sides on a straight line add up to 180 degrees. The two angles would add up to 180 degrees since they are on the one side of the line.
Simplifying:
(5x+12x) + (1-8) = 180
Add your common variables together; keep in mind that variables are placed before numbers.
Adding:
17x-7 = 180
Process:
To do this, you are going to simply do the opposite operation for the number without the variable on both sides of the equal sign.
17x - 7 = 180
+ 7 + 7
------------------
17x = 187
----- ------
17 17
x = 11
You divided by 17 on both sides because you needed to get the x variable by itself. Hope this helped! :)
Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
1 dozen eggs cost 2.04 and your adding another half dozen so your adding half the price of the dozen egg.
2.04/2=1.02
2.04+1.02=3.06
So 18 eggs costs $3.06
Hope this helps!! :))
$1.14 1.40 x 0.8=1.12 1.4+ 1.12=1.52 * 0.25 = 1.14
