Just got the wrong answer to see what it was
Answer:
562 child tickets were sold
217 adult tickets were sold
Step-by-step explanation:
A festival charges $3 for children admission and $5 for adult admission
At the end of the festival they have sold a total number of 779 tickets for $2771
Let x represent the child ticket
Let y represent the adult ticket
x + y= 779..............equation 1
3x + 5y= 2771..........equation 2
From equation 1
x + y = 779
x= 779 -y
Substitute 779-y for x in equation 2
3x + 5y= 2771
3(779-y) + 5y= 2771
2337 - 3y + 5y= 2771
2337 +2y= 2771
2y= 2771 -2337
2y = 434
y = 434/2
y = 217
Substitute 217 for y in equation 1
x + y= 779
x + 217= 779
x = 779-217
x= 562
Hence 562 child tickets were sold and 217 adult tickets were sold

Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
6 divided by.75 if u think I'm wrong check and correct me
6 / 8 = 3/4
3/4 x 7 = 5 1/4
5 1/4 = $5.25
So, 7/8 of a pound of shrimp costs $5.25.
