This is what I got sorry if it’s incorrect I tried..
You can set this up as an algebraic equation using the ratio:
=
where x = number of skiers
Cross multiply:
x + 1250 = 2x
Solve for x:
-x = -1250
x=1250
To find the number of snowboarders, add 1250.
1250 + 1250 = 2500
1250 skiers and 2500 snowboarders bought season passes.
Are you asking how to solve this equation?
To solve this, what you will need to do is find the solution of one variable and then substitute it and solve for the other.
Here’s how to solve:
y+2x=4
-2x -2x
y=4-2x
4-2x + 2x =4
4=4
So if you’re trying to see if it is true, then your answer is that it’s true.
If you’re trying to find the linear equation, then your answer is y=-2x+4.
