Answer:

Both child tickets and senior tickets cost $14.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the school that DeShawn goes to is selling tickets to the annual dance competition, and on the first day of ticket sales, the school sold 10 senior citizen tickets and 8 child tickets for a total of $ 252, while the school took in $ 280 on the second day by selling 10 senior citizen tickets and 10 child tickets, to determine what is the price of each of one senior citizen ticket and one child ticket, the following calculation must be performed:

10 senior tickets + 8 child tickets = 252

10 senior tickets + 10 child tickets = 280

280 - 252 = 2 child tickets

28 = 2 child tickets

28/2 = 1 child ticket

14 = 1 child ticket

14 x 10 = 140

(280 - 140) / 10 = senior tickets

140/10 = 14 = senior tickets

Therefore, both child tickets and senior tickets cost $14.

Solve the system of equations. \begin{aligned} &amp; -5x+13y = -7 \\\\ &amp; 5x+4y=24 \end{aligned} ​ −5x+13y=−7 5x+4y=24 ​ x= e
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

The solution of the given equations

x =4 , y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Explanation</u>:-

<u>Step(l</u>):-

Given the system of equations -5x+13y = -7 ..(l)

                                                     5x+4y=24 ..(ll)

<u>Step(ll)</u>

Adding (l) and (ll) equations and cancelling '5x' terms we get

         13y+4y = -7 +24

               17y = 17

dividing '17' on both sides, we get

                y=1

<u>Step(lll):-</u>

Substitute y=1 in equation (l) , we get

-5x+13y = -7

-5x + 13(1) = -7

subtracting '13' on both sides, we get

-5x +13 -13= -7 -13

-5x = -20

Dividing '-5' on  both sides, we get

x = \frac{-20}{-5}

x = 4

<u>Conclusion</u>:-

The solution of the given equations

x =4 , y = 1
