Let x = # of tickets sold in advance
Let y = # of tickets sold the day of
Cost of the tickets & total sales: 6x & 10y = 6828
You also know y = x + 206
Take the equation mentioned above y = x + 206 and sub it in anywhere the variable y is in the other equations so you'll have this:
6x + 10(x+206) = 6828
Now solve for x to get x = 298
To finish the problem, you must now find the number of y tickets sold.
Sub your x value that you found back into the equation y = x + 206 and you'll get y = 504.
So, 298 tickets were sold in advance and 504 tickets were sold the day of
Answer:
2. 92 ounces of Sprite
3. 1/6 do not want mustard on their ham sandwiches
4. 6 hours playing volleyball
5. 32 portions
Step-by-step explanation:
2. Sam has 8 cans of Sprite. Each can is 11 2/4 ounces
We can simplify 2/4 to 1/2
Multiply the number of cans by the ounces per can
8 * 11 1/2
8 * 11.5
92 ounces
3. 1/2 of the students want ham. 1/3 of those do not want mustard
We multiply 1/2*1/3 = 1/6
1/6 of the students do not want mustard on their ham sandwiches
4. 8 hours at the beach. 3/4 of the time was spent playing volleyball
Multiply this together
8*3/4 = 8/4*3 = 2*3 = 6 hours
5. We have 4 lbs of wings. We divide it into 1/8 lbs parts
4 ÷ 1/8
Copy dot flip
4 * 8/1
32 portions
1/4 : 2 or 1/8 : 1. That is how I would have done it. I hope this helps you.
