Answer:
294, 384
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:the number of children tickets that were sold is 30.
the number of adult tickets that were sold is 70
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of children tickets that were sold.
Let y represent the number of adult tickets that were sold.
The movie theater sells a total of 100 tickets. This means that
x + y = 100
The theater charges $6 per child's ticket and $10 per adult's ticket. The movie theater made a total of $880. It means that
6x + 10y = 880 - - - - - - - - - - -1
Substituting x = 100 - y into equation 2, it becomes
6(100 - y) + 10y = 880
600 - 6y + 10y = 880
- 6y + 10y = 880 - 600
4y = 280
y = 280/4 = 70
x = 100 - y = 100 - 70
x = 30
You can do this by converting this into a ratio or a fraction
Ratio:
1 lb for 4 guinea pigs
1:4
If he was 8 lbs for x guinea pigsit would be
1:4
8:x
Multiply the first ration until the one is equal to 8, then whatever the four turns into is x
Fraction: (easier way)
1/4 (1lb for 4 guinea pigs)
8/x (8lb for x guinea pigs)
1/4 = 8/x
Multiply one until it is equal to 8
Correspond that to the 4
1*8 = 8
4*8 = 32
32 guinea pigs
