He cut the poster board into 10 equal parts, so you start with none of the poster board being used up.
Since there were 10 sheets of poster board, and now 8/10 of the original amount is left, we know that there must now be 8 sheets left out of the original 10 sheets.
He can make one sign for each remaining sheet, so he can make 8 signs.
The answer is C.
Answer:the cost of one child's ticket is $6
the cost of one adult ticket is $9
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the cost of one child's ticket
Let y represent the cost of one adult ticket.
Tickets for a minor league baseball game for an adult and two children cost a total of $21. This means that
2x + y = 21 - - - - - - - - - - 1
The adult ticket is three dollars more than a child's ticket. This means that
y = x + 3
Substituting y = x + 3 into equation 1, it becomes
2x + x + 3 = 21
3x + 3 = 21
3x = 21 - 3 = 18
x = 18/3 = 6
y = x + 3 = 6 + 3
y = 9
39
Divide 78 by 2 to get 39 and add in to the number
