Answer:

x=3

y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 6-y

-plug in (6-y) into first equation

2(6-y)+3y = 15

12-2y+3y=15

-2y+3y = 3

y=3

x=6-3

x=3

double check:

(2*3) + (3*3) = 6 + 9 = 15

3 + 3 = 6

Answer:

x = 3

y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 3y = 15

x + y = 6

2x + 3y = 15

x(-3) + y(-3) = 6(-3)

2x + 3y = 15

-3x - 3y = -18

Add:

2x + 3y = 15

-3x - 3y = -18

- x = -3

x = 3

Substitute x to any of the equation:

x + y = 6

3 + y = 6

y = 6 - 3

y = 3

For a Saturday matinee, adult tickets cost $8.50 and kids under 12 pay only $7.00. If 80 tickets are sold for a total
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

  • 30 adult tickets,
  • 50 kids tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>

  • Cost of adult ticket = $8.50
  • Cost of kids ticket = $7.00
  • Number of tickets = 80
  • Total cost = $605

Let the adult ticket be a and kids be k

<u>We got equations</u>

  • a + k = 80
  • 8.5a + 7k = 605

<u>From the first equation we get</u>

  • k = 80 -a

<u>Substituting k in the second equation</u>

  • 8.5a + 7(80 - a) = 605
  • 8.5a - 7a + 560= 605
  • 1.5a = 45
  • a = 45/1.5
  • a = 30

<u>Then finding k</u>

  • k = 80 - 30 = 50
