6 1/4 - 5 1/2=
6 1/4 - 5 2/4= 3/4
The answer is 3/4.
Based on the angles, we know this is a 45-45-90 triangle.
In this type of triangle, x and y will be equal. The formula for the sides is x * rad 2 = 8 .
8/ rad 2 = 5.66
Both X and Y are 5.66 units.
Given:
tickets for adults - 25
tickets for kids - 15
initial cost - 450
increase in tickets for kids to - 18
cost after increase - 480
let x be number of adults and y be number of kids
25x + 15y = 450
25x + 18y = 480
subtraction:
25x + 15y = 450
<u>-25x - 18y = -480</u>
0 - 3y = - 30
y = -30/-3
y = 10
There are 10 kids.
25x + 15y = 450
25x + 15(10) = 450
25x + 150 = 450
25x = 450 - 150
25x = 300
x = 300/25
x = 12
There are 12 adults.
All in all there are 12 adults and 10 kids.
to check:
25x + 15y = 450
25(12) + 15(10) = 450
300 + 150 = 450
450 = 450
25x + 18y = 480
25(12) + 18(10) = 480
300 + 180 = 480
480 = 480
Answer: <em>a + ( 2a - 7 ) = 41</em>
Explanation:
Let be "a" the Nicci's age and "s" the Nicci's sister.
You know that the sum of Nicci's age and her sister's age is 41. This can be represented with the following equation:
<em>a + 8 = 41</em>
And knowing that Nicci's sister is 7 years less than twice Nicci's age, you can write another equation to represent this:
<em>8 = 2a - 7</em>
Now, substitute the second equation into the first equation in order to find the equation that represents this relationship.
Then, this is:
<em>a + ( 2a - 7 ) = 41</em>
<em></em>
