Answer:
750 times 6
Step-by-step explanation:
-7=z/2+1
What you first need to do is to multiply both sides of the equation by 2
-14=z+2
Now you move the variable to the left side and change within it’s own sign
-z-14=2
Into
-z=2+14
Now you then add the numbers
-z=16
The last part you do is change the sign on both sides in this equation
z=-16
Therefore, z=-16 is your answer in number 16.
$6.89
The book is $10. Minus the 35% discount ($10X0.35=$3.50). So the subtotal is $10-$3.50=$6.50.
Tax is 6%. So 0.06X$6.50=$0.39
The total including tax is $6.50+$0.39=$6.89
Answer:
- 321 adult tickets
- 227 child tickets
Step-by-step explanation:
This sort of problem is easily solved by defining a variable to be the quantity of the higher-value contributor. Here, we can let x represent the number of adult tickets. Then total revenue is ...
6.50x +3.50(548-x) = 2881
3x +1918 = 2881 . . . . . . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses, collect terms
3x = 963 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 1918
x = 321 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3
548-x = 548 -321 = 227 . . . . . .number of child tickets
321 adult tickets and 227 child tickets were sold.
