Answer:

Number of advance tickets sold = 30

Number of same-day tickets sold = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

x be the number of advance tickets sold

y be the number of same-day tickets sold

According to given statement;

x + y = 50      Eqn 1

25x + 20y = 1150     Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 25

25(x+y=50)

25x + 25y = 1250     Eqn 3

Subtracting Eqn 2 from Eqn 3

(25x+25y)-(25x+20y) = 1250 - 1150

25x + 25y - 25x - 20y = 100

5y = 100

Dividing both sides by 5

\frac{5y}{5}=\frac{100}{5}\\y=20

Putting y = 20 in Eqn 1

x + 20 = 50

x = 50 - 20

x = 30

Hence,

Number of advance tickets sold = 30

Number of same-day tickets sold = 20

Identify the percent of change as an increase or a decrease. 4/5 to 3/5
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

Decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

So, I encourage you to grab a calculator and see for yourself

Put in the function: 4/5 into a standard calculator. You will see that it will come out to .8

Put in the function: 3/5 into a standard calculator. You will see that it will come out to .6

.6 is less than .8, just as 3/5 is less than 4/5.

Another analogy that can be used is seeing the fraction as a real-life object.

Let's say that you make two pies. You cut the pie evenly into five slices. You set them on the table and leave them for whoever wants to eat them. You see that Pie 1 has two slices missing (3/5) and that Pie 2 has one slice missing. (4/5)

3 out of 5 slices are left of Pie 1.

4 out of 5 slices are left of Pie 2.

Pie 1 has less than Pie 2 does.

Hope this has helped!
