Answer:
68
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x=adult tickets and y=child tickets
1) 15x+11y=1889
2) x+y=147
multiply equation 1 by -1/11 on both sides to get:
-(15/11)x-y=-171.73
add new equation with equation 2 to get
-4/11x=-24.73
Isolate x to get:
x=67.99999
Round up to get 68 adult tickets
Answer:
Choice 2
Step-by-step explanation:
X=13 1/3
So first you have to add 16 +4 = 20. Then, simplify 3/2 to 1.5. Finally divide 20 by 1.5 = 13.333333333, or 13 1/3
To get the total cost, add the tax rate to 1, then multiply that by the price of the cartridge:
Total: 17.50 x 1.0925 = $19.12
