Answer:

  • adult: $7
  • student: $10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a and s represent the prices of adult and student tickets, respectively.

  13a +12s = 211 . . . . . . ticket sales the first day

  5a +3s = 65 . . . . . . . ticket sales the second day

Subtracting the first equation from 4 times the second gives ...

  4(5a +3s) -(13a +12s) = 4(65) -(211)

  7a = 49 . . . . . . . simplify

  a = 7 . . . . . . . divide by 7

  5(7) +3s = 65 . . . . substitute into the second equation

  3s = 30 . . . . . . . subtract 35

  s = 10 . . . . . . . divide by 3

The price of one adult ticket is $7; the price of one student ticket is $10.

Marco drove 75 miles in 1 2/3 hours. how many miles ca he drive in 1 hour?
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

  • <u>45 miles</u>

Explanation:

The distance driven is directly proportional to the time:

  • distance / time = K

Which can also be written as:

  • distance₁ / time₁ = distance₂ / time₂

Here you have:

  • distance₁ =75 miles
  • time₁ = 1 + 2/3  hours = (3 + 2) / 3 hours = 5/3 hours
  • distance₂ = x
  • time₂ = 1 hour

With that you can set up a proportion:

  • 75 miles / (5/3) hour = x₂ / 1 hour

Solving for x₂ you get:

  • x₂ = [75 miles] × 1 hour / (5/3 hour) = 3 × 75 / 5 miles = 45 miles
