Answer:

x = -53/8

Step-by-step explanation:

6(2x + 7) = 5x - 11 - x

12x + 42 = 5x -11 - x (Distributive property)

12x + 42 = 4x - 11 (Subtraction property)

8x + 42 = -11 (Subtraction Property)

8x = -53 (Subtraction Property)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

6(2x + 7) = 5x - 11 - x

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Combine like terms:                                                                                       6(2x + 7) = 4x - 11
  2. Distribute 6:                                                                                                    12x + 42 = 4x - 11
  3. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 4x on both sides:                    8x + 42 = -11
  4. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 42 on both sides:                    8x = -53
  5. [Division Property of Equality] Divide 8 on both sides:                                x = -53/8

: A theater sells tickets for a concert. Adult tickets sell for $6.50 each, and children's tickets sell for $3.50 each. The thea
BARSIC [14]

Answer: 321 adult tickets and 227 children tickets were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of adult tickets that were sold.

Let y represent the number of children tickets that were sold.

The total number of tickets that the theatre sold is 548. This means that

x + y = 548

Adult tickets sell for $6.50 each, and children's tickets sell for $3.50 each. The total ticket sales was $2881. This means that

6.5x + 3.5y = 2881 - - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 548 - y into equation 1, it becomes

6.5(548 - y) + 3.5y = 2881

3562 - 6.5y + 3.5y = 2881

- 6.5y + 3.5y = 2881 - 3562

- 3y = - 681

y = - 681/ -3

y = 227

x = 548 - y = 548 - 227

x = 321

Which inequality correctly compares Two-fifths, Six-sevenths, Five-eighths, and 1?
Ronch [10]

Answer:

<u>2/5 < 5/8 < 6/7 < 1 </u>

   <u>OR</u>    

<u>1 > 6/7 > 5/8 > 2/5</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

It is required to compare Two-fifths, Six-sevenths, Five-eighths, and 1

Two-fifths = 2/5

Six-sevenths = 6/7

Five-eighths = 5/8

So, the given numbers are: 2/5, 6/7, 5/8, and 1

We need to make the numbers in order from the least to the greatest or from the greatest to the least

The easy method is convert the rational numbers to decimal numbers

So,

2/5 = 0.4

6/7 ≈ 0.857

5/8 = 0.625

1 = 1

So, the numbers form the least to the greatest are:

0.4 , 0.625 , 0.857 , 1

So,

2/5 , 5/8 , 6/7 , 1

The inequality correctly compares the numbers are:

<u>2/5 < 5/8 < 6/7 < 1</u>

Or can be written from the greatest to the least as:

<u>1 > 6/7 > 5/8 > 2/5 </u>
