Answer:
P=x+18
Step-by-step explanation:
a=8
b=x
c=10
P=8+x+10
(1, 5), b/c both lines pass through this point - is the correct answer.
There was 3000 general admission tickets sold and 500 kid ticket sold.
How did I get this?
First, we need to see what information we have.
$2.50 = General admission tickets = (G)
$0.50 = kids tickets = (K)
There were 6x as many general admission tickets sold as kids. G = 6K
We need two equations:
G = 6K
$2.50G + $.50K = $7750
Since, G = 6K we can substitute that into the 2nd equation.
2.50(6K) + .50K = 7750
Distribute 2.50 into the parenthesis
15K + .50K = 7750
combine like terms
15.50K = 7750
Divide both sides by 15.50, the left side will cancel out.
K = 7750/15.50
K = 500 tickets
So, 500 kid tickets were sold.
Plug K into our first equation (G = 6k)
G = 6*500
G = 3000 tickets
So, 3000 general admission tickets were sold,
Let's check this:
$2.50(3000 tickets) = $7500 (cost of general admission tickets)
$.50(500 tickets) = $250 (cost of general admission tickets)
$7500 + $250 = $7750 (total cost of tickets)
Answer: (c - 3) / 2 = x
Step-by-step explanation:
If c represents the cookies, then you remove 3 because she ate 3 of the cookies. Since half of the remainder of the cookies were given to her friend, you must divide the product of c - 3, by 2. The reason for the parenthesis is so that it overrules PEMDAS, as parenthesis goes before division.
