Answer:

Option D is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Statement 1

Average weight of 3 dogs = 55 pounds

Total weight of 3 dogs = 55 × 3

Total weight of 3 dogs = 165 pound

Statement 2

Average weight of 5 cats = 9 pounds

Total weight of 5 cats = 9 × 5

Total weight of 5 cats = 45 pounds

New Average = 165 + 45/8

New Average = 210/8

New Average = 26.25 pounds

For a particular​ event, 669 tickets were sold for a total of ​$4293. If students paid ​$5 per ticket and nonstudents paid ​$8 p
solong [7]

Answer:

353 tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that there are s student tickets and n nonstudent tickets.

s + n = 669

5s + 8n = 4293

Multiply -5 by the entire first equation to get...

-5s - 5n = -3345

Combine the two equations.

5s - 5s + 8n - 5n = 4293 - 3345

3n = 948

n = 316

Now, put the number of nonstudent tickets sold back into the first equation.

s + 316 = 669

s = 353 tickets.

Hope this helps!
