Let x be the number of child tickets he bought
Let y be the number of adult tickers he bought
① x+y=7 (child tickets+adult ticket=7 tickets in total)
② 2x+4y=24 (price of child tickets+price of adult tickets=$24 in total)
We may simply the second equation since all of the coefficients are divisible by 2.
① x+y=7
② x+2y=12
We can now use elimination by multiplying the second equation by -1.
② -(x+2y=12)
② -x-2y=-12
① x+y=7
② -x-2y=-12
Now putting the equations together,
-y=-5
y=5
x=2
Therefore he bought 2 child tickets and 5 adult tickets
First you subtract the 30 from 300 and than 270/45 and your answer will be A. 6

Answer:
45
Step-by-step explanation:
5 less than your number is at least 40. Let the number be x. So rephrasing the statement, 5 less than x is greater than or equals 40.
x-5 ≥ 40
x-5+ 5 ≥ 40+5 (adding 5 to both sides to single out the x in LHS)
∴x ≥ 45
In other words, x is at least 45.
Therefore, the minimum value of x is 45.
