7 minutes= 2 minutes x 3.5

The squirrel burrowed 6 holes in 2 minutes.
To find how many holes the squirrel burrows in 7 minutes we multiply 6 x 3.5= 21.

Alternate method:

If the squirrel burrows 6 holes in 2 minutes that means he has burrowed 3 holes in 1 minute.
Multiply the number of holes burrowed in 1 minute by 7 to get 21.

Tickets for admission to a high school football game cost $3 for students and $5 for adults. During 1 game, $2995 was collected
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

Number of student tickets = 325

Number of adult tickets = 404

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

x be the number of student tickets

y be the number of adult tickets

According to given statement;

x+y=729     Eqn 1

3x+5y=2995    Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 3

3(x+y=729)

3x+3y=2187    Eqn 3

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2

(3x+5y)-(3x+3y)=2995-2187

3x+5y-3x-3y=808

2y=808

Dividing both sides by 2

\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{808}{2}\\y=404

Putting y=404 in Eqn 1

x+404=729

x=729-404

x=325

Hence,

Number of student tickets = 325

Number of adult tickets = 404

The average number of customers per day increased 25 percent during the sale. If the average number of customers per day before
Rasek [7]

Answer:

The average number of customers per day during the sale was 150.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved using a rule of three.

Before the sale, the average number of customers per day was 120, which is 100% = 1.

Now, there are x customers, and since it is an increase of 25%, it is 100+25 = 125% = 1.25. So

120 - 1

x - 1.25

x = 1.25*120 = 150

The average number of customers per day during the sale was 150.
