Let us formulate the independent equation that represents the problem. We let x be the cost for adult tickets and y be the cost for children tickets. All of the sales should equal to $20. Since each adult costs $4 and each child costs $2, the equation should be
4x + 2y = 20
There are two unknown but only one independent equation. We cannot solve an exact solution for this. One way to solve this is to state all the possibilities. Let's start by assigning values of x. The least value of x possible is 0. This is when no adults but only children bought the tickets.
When x=0,
4(0) + 2y = 20
y = 10
When x=1,
4(1) + 2y = 20
y = 8
When x=2,
4(2) + 2y = 20
y = 6
When x=3,
4(3) + 2y= 20
y = 4
When x = 4,
4(4) + 2y = 20
y = 2
When x = 5,
4(5) + 2y = 20
y = 0
When x = 6,
4(6) + 2y = 20
y = -2
A negative value for y is impossible. Therefore, the list of possible combination ends at x =5. To summarize, the combinations of adults and children tickets sold is tabulated below:
Number of adult tickets Number of children tickets
0 10
1 8
2 6
3 4
4 2
5 0

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If you round 4.3 to the nearest whole number, you will get 4.The reason is because a number less than 5 is closer to 4 but a number greater than five or is five will be rounded to five.

0.6.
5/9 = 0.5555555... which rounds to 0.6
This is a working backwards question.
Since the golf ball was 45g, and the bag was 1.8kg,we need to make them the same units.
45g= 0.45kg
1.8kg= 1.8kg
Now that the units are the same, we put it in a calculator.
1.8÷0.45= 4
Therefore, there are 4 golf balls in the bags.
We can check this by doing 4×0.45= 1.8
Hope this helped!
