Answer:
64 builders must be employed to build a house in 16 days
Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the answer, plug the values of each variable into the equation and simplify. It may be easiest to plug one variable in at a time, simplify, then plug the next variable in. Remember, if the equation is asking you to subtract a negative number, the negatives cancel and you want to add the numbers.
b = 2 c = -4
3b - c + 5 <----- Original expression
3(2) - c + 5 <----- Plug 2 in for "b"
6 - c + 5 <----- Multiply 3 and 2
11 - c <----- Add 6 and 5
11 - (-4) <----- Plug -4 in for "c"
15 <----- Add 11 and 4
140 tickets sold at the door
Step by Step Explanation:
x = tickets sold in advance
y = tickets sold at the door
We use the formula ax+by=c and a+b=c
x + y = 514
17x + 20y = 9158
y = 514 - x
17x + 20(514 - x)
17x + 10,280 - 20x = 9,158
-3x + 10,280 = 9,158
-3x = -11222
x = 374
This is for tickets sold in advance so we need to find y
374 + y = 514
y = 140
140 tickets were sold at the door
Divide $55.65 by 7 to get the cost of 1 key chain ($7.95). Then multiply the cost of 1 by 12 and get $95.40
