Answer:

B

x + y = 712

8x + 4y = 4,256

Step-by-step explanation:

If x=the amount of adult tickets, and y=the amount of children's tickets, then the total amount of tickets (712) should be x+y. Our first equation: x+y=712

The total made from adult tickets is found by multiplying the amount of tickets by the price per ticket: 8x. The total made from children's tickets is found by multiplying the amount of tickets by the price per ticket: 4y.The total amount of money made (4256) is the sum of the amount made by adult tickets (8x) and the amount made by children's tickets (4y). Our second equation: 8x+4y=4256

It takes 12 hours for 7 men to paint a room.
dangina [55]

28 men are needed to paint the room in 3 hours

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that it takes 12 hours for 7 men to paint a room

We are asked to find number of men required to paint the room in 3 hours

Recognize, "paint the room" is 1 task. One job.

7 men -------- 12 hours ------ 1 job

(7/7) = 1 men ------- 12 x 7 (84)  ------- same 1 job

The one men is rate is 84 hours to do the job

We can express this as 1/84 jobs per hour, the one-person rate

Now lets find how many men needed to paint the room in 3 hours

Let the required number of men for 3 hours be "a"

The rates of each person is simply additive.

a \times \frac{1}{84} \times 3 = 1

corresponds to rate x hours = jobs and "a" is a variable for how many men

a \times \frac{1}{28} = 28

Thus 28 men are needed to paint the room in 3 hours
