Answer:
Number of student tickets = 325
Number of adult tickets = 404
Step-by-step explanation:
Let,
x be the number of student tickets
y be the number of adult tickets
According to given statement;
x+y=729 Eqn 1
3x+5y=2995 Eqn 2
Multiplying Eqn 1 by 3
3(x+y=729)
3x+3y=2187 Eqn 3
Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2
(3x+5y)-(3x+3y)=2995-2187
3x+5y-3x-3y=808
2y=808
Dividing both sides by 2
Putting y=404 in Eqn 1
x+404=729
x=729-404
x=325
Hence,
Number of student tickets = 325
Number of adult tickets = 404

Answer:
<em>a) the cost of one apple is €</em><em>0.9</em>
<em>b) the cost of one pineapple is €</em><em>5.4</em>
<em>c) the cost of two pineapples and six apples is €</em><em>16.2</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider P the price of a pineapple
A the price of an apple
A pineapple costs six times as much as an apple means P = 6A
Mum paid €7.20 for one pineapple and two apples means P + 2A = 7.20
then
6A + 2A = 7.20
then
8A = 7.20
then
A = €0.9
Since P = 6A then P = 6×(0.9) = €5.4
the cost of two pineapples and six apples
= 2P + 6A
= 2P + P
= 3P
= 3×(5.4)
= €16.2
Answer:
1.
-9 11/15
2. 11/24
3.
34/45
4. -5.05
5. -0.622
Step-by-step explanation:
1. -2 4/5 - 6 2/15
convert them to a common denominator and an improper fraction:
-2 4/5= 18/5=- 54/15 -6 2/15= 92/ 15
*15 is the other denominator, so you keep the numbers in the second number the same*
subtract: -54/15- 92/15
since you are subtracting a negative number it goes farther away from zero
-146/15 or -9 11/15
2. -5/12 + 7/8
convert them to a common denominator
-5/12=- 20/48 7/8= 35/40
add: -20/48+35/40
11/24
since you are adding a negative number it goes closer to zero or past zero:
3. 3 3/5 x 2/9
convert 3 3/5 to an improper fraction: 18/5
mulitply the two denominators and the two numerators
17/5 x 2/9= 34/45
This is also the simplest form.
4. Convert to a decimal. -5 1/20
keep the -5 beacuse that is a whole number
divide 1/20 to turn it to a decimal to get 0.05
5. Which number is the largest? -0.65, -0.622, -5/8
to find this you would have to convert all numbers to either a decimal or a fraction.
5/8 is 0.625
the one closest to zero is the largest which is -0.622
