Answer:
without the sales, he would have spent $44.57
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the amount he would have spent without the sales be x. Now, if there is a 65% discount, what this means is that he is exactly paying for 100 - 65% = 35%
Now, it is this 35% of X that is equal to the amount he paid
Thus, mathematically, we have the following;
35/100 * x = 15.60
35x = 15.6 * 100
35x = 1560
x = 1560/35
x = $44.57
This means that without the sales discount, he would have paid $44.57
The sum that represents the number of tickets sold if 35 tickets were sold Monday, half of the remaining tickets were sold on Tuesday and 14 tickets were sold on Wednesday.
To start solving this, we can assign t as the variable to the total number of tickets that were sold. So, t = 35 (for Monday) + (t - 35)/2 (for Tuesday) + 14 (for Wednesday). To solve this, we can say t = 49 + (t - 35)/2, or 2t = 98 + t - 35, which equals t = 63. Therefore, 63 tickets were sold total.
