We can say that exchanging one couple's ticket for an individual's ticket would increase the money in the cash box from 200 to 202 and it would result in an even number of couples tickets sold.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Let the number of tickets sold to the individuals = s
Let the number of tickets sold to the couples = c
According to the question,
s + c = 46 ( Equation 1)
Since each individual's ticket is $6, the total amount of money made by selling tickets to individuals is 6s.
Similarly, since each ticket sold to couples is $8, the total amount of money made by selling tickets to couples is 8c.
So,
6 s + 8 c = 200 ( Equation 2)
On solving both the equations, we get
c = 38 and s = 8
Therefore, 8 tickets were sold to individuals and 38 tickets were sold to the couples.
Answer: 15.3 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are informed that Martin would like to start training to run a marathon and that first week he runs a total of 15 miles.
We are further told that he would like to run 0.3 more miles each week than the week before. There, the number of miles that Martin will run the second week will be:
= 15 miles + 0.3 miles
= 15.3 miles
