Answer:

admission price of each parent = $7.5

admission price of each child = $15

Step-by-step explanation:

x = admission price of each parent

y = admission price of each child

Robinson family:

2x + 4y = 75

Moore family:

2x + 3y = 60

2x + 4y = 75 (1)

2x + 3y = 60 (2)

Subtract (2) from (1)

4y - 3y = 75 - 60

y = 15

Substitute y = 15 into (1)

2x + 4y = 75

2x + 4(15) = 75

2x + 60 = 75

2x = 75 - 60

2x = 15

x = 15/2

x = 7.5

3) Tara sold candles to raise money for new playground equipment at her school.
Ronch [10]

Answer:

Tara's current expression finds how much the school will be keeping. 50 x 2/5 (also written as 50 x 0.4) totals out as 20. $20 is 2/5 of $50. The expression that Tara SHOULD have written to find how much goes to the candle company would be 50 x 3/5 (also written as 50 x 0.6), as this adds up to 30. $30 is 3/5 of $50.

Step-by-step explanation:

50/5 = 10 which means that 1/5 of 50 = 10.

2/5 of 50 ($20) is kept by the school. This is what Tara's expression finds. This means that $30 is sent to the candle company, and can be found with the expression 50 x 3/5.

The decimals are created by dividing the numerator of the fraction by the denominator (I find it easier to do math with decimals).
